Editing Warhammer/Tactics/6th Edition/The Empire (section)

==Army Special Rules==
* '''Detachment system:''' The Empire army uses the detachment system. Basically detachments are small support units of a parent unit. The detachment can charge along the parent unit or counter-charge a charging opponent. A detachment will charge to flank of an enemy if possible which is usually ridiculously effective. Unfortunately the role of the detachments is normally to be the cannon fodder since your opponent propably understands the effectiveness of detachments. On the other hand, your opponent has to use his precious power dice or mundane firepower to decimate very cheap units which don't even cause panic.
