Hi!
More stupid question from me:
I'm playing pacto and units A and B declares charge on unit C.
Is it possible to end charge move as shown?
Is one of units A and B will fight as supporting file or I should calculate dice colour separately A and B will roll their resulting dice and C will roll dice once, against chosen enemy?



Thank you!

A and B can both charge C as shown.  Players could choose to align.

If neither aligns, the player controlling A and B chooses which of A and B fights and which will be the supporting file.  C fights against only one.

Thank you.
And if receiving charge unit align attacker A, attacker B will not have space for charge?
Or can charge in corner contact?

And one more question about charge phase. If pursuing unit contact existing melee - it will join that fight, right?
But that happens if that melee already resolved? Rules states that if pursuing unit contacts enemy in charge phase - melee is resolved in that phase.

Aligning happens after charges are completed.  So A and B charge, before any aligning takes place.

I am not clear what you mean by resolved.  If one side has broken, then the rout will have taken place before the pursuing units are moved.  If the melee is continuing, then resolve the charge combat as normal.
