Melee and ranged attack on one unit?

[WhiteDeath]

I want to make a ranger that fires with a bow and uses a knife for close combat, I know how to make the model and the necessary animations, but I don't know how to make the unit use the two different animations in game.

Is it possible to make a unit attack with ranged attacks when the target is at a distance and attack with melee attacks when the target gets close?
Something like in warhammer 40k.

Possibly transforming the unit when they begin an attack on a target within melee range (and similarly transforming them back when they begin an attack on a target beyond melee range).

This does not work so easy as the attack only starts when in meele range.
You would have to check the orders all the time.
It could work to make the unit ranged and swap to meele if a unit is attacked in meele range. As soon if the units stops attacking, swap back.

Make the ranged attack an ability based off of Parasite.

On second thought if you did do this you would need a way to make the spell have a minimum range.
