Last night I had a discussion with my opponent.
We had my EG 5-wide engaged with his Savage Orcs 6-wide. After a good round of combat I won big and I still had 2 complete ranks of 5 models, while he was left with two rank of 6 models and a third one with 5.
He then claimed he was steadfast because he had more ranks of 5 models than me.
Now, I know it's incorrect since it should be "if you have more COMPLETE ranks consisting of 5 or more models than your opponent", but I wasn't able to find any reference on the BRB about incomplete ranks not conferring bonus resolution or steadfast as long as they're consisting of at least 5 models.
Incomplete ranks and steadfast.

Re: Incomplete ranks and steadfast.
I thin he's actually right. So long as you have 5 models in a rank they count for rank bonus and steadfast. Pretty sure theres a reference to that exact situation in the rules around combat resolution.

Pg 54 "The last rank doesn't have to be complete".

Oh well, my bad.
Do you happen to have the pg reference for the Isle of blood SRB (Small Red Book) too?
I'll have to admit him my mistake, I guess.

That's a wicked slur, I haven't played Dark Elves for many years.
