I've hope I've got this right. In 8th units panic away from the closest enemy unit (apart from shooting). So: 1. Take a slann with lore of fire 2. Move terradons behind enemy lines (or chameleons) 3. Cast burning head 4. Watch enemy units panic towards your battleline! Could this work? (don't have 8th BRB yet)
Fleeing units that run into your battle line no longer are removed from play. The enemy units that run into your units take a dangerous terrain test and are wounded on a 1. This is not as effective as it was in 7th.
Drats, I thought in 8th all models that flee through your units were wiped out. Still it would be a fun.
That could potentially be disastrous, if the fleeing units rally and reform behind your army. But using terradons to guide panic is still a good idea. Panic something on the far flank of an army and then use terradons to send it running across the battleline. Only problem is of course the BSB hanging around will let them reroll those panic tests. Of course if one were to snipe the BSB out of a unit...
