Not sure about this Tomisama. I'ld say it's better to stand fast with spearunits. It will cancel the charge (you run risks when it loses formation).

The Ni does not cancel the charge, but has a very high defense value. I'ld also put them on hold to get even more def and hope for the best.

But with say a Nod you want to countercharge as it will take a hit anyway, but also has a good punch itself.
Neither the spear nor the Ni has a good charge themselves, so why charge?

A bigger problem is when a small provocation is answered with an all out or deep charge. Fight your battle, not that of your opponent (which means in this case that you engage when you want to, not when your opponent wants it).
