Tlos, running, flat out save for skimmers/jetbikes
although i want the multi-assualt rules changed to if you have the distance and can keep coherency charge whoever your want
there's a reason for preventing charging whatever.
Back in the day, I would shoot one squad to death, then charge a second squad, wipe them out, and then consolidate into a 3rd, effectively killing 2 units and locking up a 3rd one in a single phase.
Basically, it is broken and unfair. Tyranids were nearly unstoppable with those rules.
Seriously: I didn't lose a game for 3 months straight. That was once. And that was due to a specific person tailoring his army to specifically destroy mine. The next week, I brought something different, and I still crushed everyone, and defeated the taylor army.

how about if you shoot you cannot multi-assault at all as it take distracts you from other units?
and i said nothing about changing consolidation moves to allow charging, i mean this has to be the most broken part of your entire example by being able to unit hop and avoid the shooting phase easily

not really.
wiping out 2 units is the real kicker. At that point, I almost don't care if you kill the squad. I had already done horrific damage to your army.
Here's a good example how you can totally screw someone:
Dante, Sanguinary Guard, Infernus pistols, Banner, Fist. Sanguinary priest, infernus, pw.
You shoot and destroy a warrior squad. Then charge the hormagaunt, and slaughter them. You kinda don't care that you can shoot the Sanguinary guard anymore. You have just totally screwed up a tyranid backbone.
i dont see how what your saying has anything to do with what im saying, i just said if they take the restrictions off moving into a multi-assault that it shouldnt be done at all if shooting then you can only charge what you shot like it is now..., and i said nothing about being able to singularly shoot a unit and charge a different unit...
you said to charge whoever you want. the only restriction on charging is if you shoot someone.
I don't know what I would like to keep but I would like to see something come back. Assaulting from rhinos from 3rd ed. Why take a transport that you have to single file out of just to stand and shoot?
Because transports aren't already awesome enough.
Though I would really like to be able to do that with my Grey Knights as well.
I am the Hammer. I am the right hand of my Emperor. I am the tip of His spear, I am the gauntlet about His fist. I am the woes of daemonkind. I am the Hammer.
I like the part of the game where they let you roll dice. I hope they keep that part and don't go to a diceless system.
