We might say that one detachment, no matter what the size, can only charge
one detachment. This leads to (at least) one problem, however, I can see a
whole clan of Orks being forced to charge an aspect warrior unit... Although
it is kind of Orky (Awright, ladz, now we give dose pansies a a good
stomping, WAAAGHHHH!). Maybe an addition that if the charging detachment
outnumbers the charged by more than 2:1 then it can charge multiple
detachments.
Damn, this is surprisingly difficult.
As for the pairing, I experimented with a method, but unfortunately it
requires some _bookkeeping_ to determine who is in CC with who, so there's
got to be a better way to do it. C'mon, people. Get those little gray cells
processing ;-)
