I have a Warhammer rules question - do characters receive the +2 armour from riding in a chariot during close combat? Referencing P.64 of the rulebook, it says they receive an extra +2 to their armour save, or they can use the chariot's armour save, whichever is better. However, beneath it, it is written that in close combat, the character behaves as if it was on a monstrous mount, which allows individual targetting and does not generally provide any extra defence to the character. |

He get's his AS +2.So if he was wearing a Chaos Armor and a Flail, he would get a 2+ AS when the attacks are targeted at him.When they nominate the chariot, the chariot has it's own AS value.I think ^_^ Correct me if e'm wrong though ;) . |

As you found in your quote, chariots in combat have changed in 7th edition. You don't get an armour save bonus for it anymore, but you do against shooting. |
