Brets Guide in Warhammer
We have been debating if the Lance makes much sense in seventh. It was better when the average unit was 80mm wide allowing 75mm of knights to get off 5/7 knights worth of attacks. Please buy warhammer gold from our site when you have no time to farm gold.
But in seventh with the opposing units going 100-125mm wide for infantry you can usually get 6-7 knights in combat with a single unit. Of course the combo charge lets you get some more folks in but you have a lot of points stuck into a single charge (and only adding 1-2 more knights for the second lance).
On the other hand the lance formation seems to be more prone to panic/terror cascades given the tempatation to have big units that bounce through several friendly units before finding a place big enough to come to rest. Our warhammer Online gold service is online now.
We been running BoC with choppy flee and flank minos/choppy chariots and some herd/hound flee and flank chaff and having a ton of fun in Warhammer. We think you could do the same with 6 wide knights which lose the blessing but that's not the worst thing.
If you are going to deride GW for valuing their wallet over what's good for the hobby then it is pretty hypocritical to be buying on ebay and playing in your friendly local gaming store.
