    Jump infantry charguing through cover

    The table of page 428 is wrong or I'm the one that's wrong. It indicates that jump infantry using their jump pack in the assault phase throw 3D6 for charge distance and discard the higher result but, didn't they ignore terrain when they used the jump packs?.

    As a note, jetpacks are noted correctly (2D6) in the same table and situation.

    Book is not on me but I think that is correct only while they are running (as opposed to jumping) in the charge phase. It states that while jumping, jump troops ignore difficult terrain but must make dangerous terrain check if starting or ending in (what for everyone else would be) difficult terrain. Note that you must make these rolls before moving your unit, because they are by model (not unit) and therefore could kill the front rank of your unit and cause you to miss the charge.
