40k's new edition reshapes melee with bigger engagement and smarter charges
Warhammer 40,000's new edition speeds up close combat with a 2-inch engagement range, post-roll charge targets within 12 inches, and easier movement through enemy engagement; ingress/Deep Strike zones are expanded, pile-in happens before fights, and the fighting order favors charged units first with consolidated moves—designed to keep more models in melee and speed up battles.
