Warhammer 40,000/7th Edition Tactics/Movement 101

Basic Advice

• Unless your strategy depends on it, keep your units from being strung out. You never know when an enemy may change tactics and a unit may need fire support quickly.

Countering Enemy Movement

• Someone who wants to flee will attempt to get away any way they can. Do not focus on directly pursuing an enemy unit, instead you should cover their escape routes.
  • Sometimes, the bait they throw out to cover the retreat of their unit is worth killing, even if it's small-fry by comparison.
