I asked Kelvin why he didn't do that very thing, and he convinced me that he
couldn't have done it. The "Magic of Tzeench" permits the World Eaters "an
extra attack that turn" - if they charge, you might allow them a "shot" in
the CC phase, but Kelvin felt that they really needed to be on "Advance" and
it's not a bad interpretation...
