Cavalry's Ride-By Attack
I have a questrion. In a cavalry's ride by attack, after hitting its target, it continues its movement. Does it take a free strike from that movement?
Heres the rules for it
Heres the rules for it
Ride-by Attack
A cavalry model can combine its normal movement and
action in a ride-by attack. Declare that the model is doing so
at the beginning of its normal movement. The model makes a
full advance and can halt its movement at any point to make
its combat action. Do not resolve abilities that trigger when
the model ends its normal movement at this time. After it
ends its combat action, the model resumes its movement.
Therefore, a model making a ride-by attack triggers endof-
action effects before end-of-normal-movement effects. A
cavalry trooper making a ride-by attack must complete both
its movement and its combat action before the next model
begins its normal movement.
Models in a cavalry unit must receive an order to make
a ride-by attack. A cavalry model that received a ride-by
attack order can make its attacks that activation even while
out of formation.

Remember, it's not just the target that get's to make the free strike - if the cavalry model rides past (into and out of) any enemy model's melee range, that enemy model get's to do a free strike.
Free striking is the general rule when one model advances out off the melee range of an enemy model, the enemy model gets to free strike. Situations where free striking is not done is stated as special rules. eg. placement, parry etc.

To put it simply, free strike triggers when a model advances out of enemy melee range. The key word here is advance. If it mentions any other way, then no FS
