I know what you were saying about unit cohesion.� Wouldn't this tactic
fall under Instinct orders though?� The BM natural instinct is to park
it and stay on FF.

I'm not sure what the situation is you are describing.� The way you posted earlier made it sound like he moved the models so that at the end of the move, the Boyz and/or the Nob stand were out-of-coherency with others of their mob after the move.� If this was the case, the rules clearly that you must maintain unit coherency at the end of the move.� You can't deliberately split formations.� Its not a tactic, its an illegal move.� In this case, you would be breaking the Core Rules.

As to the Ork Command Rule: non-Command, non-Independant Ork formations that do not have a Command stand within 10cm in the Orders phase will go onto instinctive orders.� There is no requirement for these units to remain within 10cm (as is true with the unit coherency rules) and many is the time I have moved a unit out of Command Range because I wasn't worried about their Instinctive orders or was happy to live with the consequences.� In fact, I often move the Nobz away as I have a different job for them and leave the Boyz to their own devices.
