Worth noting I believe units of 60mm bases or bigger can walk through normally

Jonathon Chester

Off hand he would have to charge the unit as a whole in this situation. If he had a trample attack he could do a trample action to move through to get closer to Annik. With regards to a allocation of attacks you can single out a character if they are in range of the attack weapon. Just any extra dam...

Jonathon Chester

Rules as written I would say no but given it’s linked to lightning rules as intended it seems fine to me

Jonathon Chester

You can use the snow field to close off a flank to uor opponent, also some formoraic units ignore the penalties and gain cover from being in it.

Jonathon Chester

Wow you guys painted these up nicely! The eternal
Question who was victorious? Ysians or Formoraic?

Jonathon Chester

Holy...mother

Jonathon Chester

Thank you for clarifying Rob, wanted to make sure that was as intended.

Jonathon Chester

Just wanting to check with Life Soil you place a 4" template down which heals each Living warrior within it by 1D10 which goes to the wounded warrior. Can this also heal your opponents units?

Jonathon Chester

Just a quick reminder to attendees lists are due in on the 10th as per player pack, if you get them in sooner I can check them with plenty of time to spare.

Thank you.

Jonathon Chester

Sweet mother of mercy....

So basically if Tekhnomantis uses his ring to force an activation on them, they'll automatically fail the force test? So better not force compelled mesokolossi... I’d hazard a guess they only are 0 authority for muster purposes you’d still make the roll against normal authority. Also a 0 isn’t a au...

Maybe you typed it but it didn't post? Thanks for the clarification

Jonathon Chester

Just a quick one Rob, the Beast of Danu has influence Fen Beasts but doesn't have the authority to take two units of Fen Beasts. As it stands the Beast of Danu has Authority 46 where as two units of Fen Beasts are 52. I am aware there was a general down grading of authority for the majority of spell...

I just use the pig crush template, since that seems the closest thing.

Not necessarily as what I take from Rob you will have a bigger template for the bigger warriors

Jonathon Chester

Question 1: the whole battlefield, there is only one weather for the battlefield at any one time.

Question 2: I believe you need to roll a 5+ on one of the invoke dice but without my book I couldn’t reference for you.

Jonathon Chester

Maybe not allies as the kindred hate each other but you never know what Rob has planned!

Jonathon Chester

All done, we may even have an Erainn player too!

apologies Rob I meant I was after the dead warrior crush template. Hadn’t realised there were tokens!

Jonathon Chester

Question more for Rob, when you throw a grabbed warrior or a dead warrior token it is supposed to be a 1" template modified by the size of model being thrown.

What template do you use for this? Got a new player wanting to make use of this mechanic with his Erainn Trees

Jonathon Chester

Hi Rob,

The Taunagh have the shieldwall ability but no shields

Jonathon Chester

Thats an interesting use of allies to get a legal force on the table of more than one kindred. The only advice I'd give you, having played a few games with ysians and using lots of feral units, is that if you put your feral tawrdraig behind your rhyfelwr, your opponent might move his units around s...

Rob

As far as I’m aware to what people are bringing I’ve put them up.

Jonathon Chester

Still plenty of spaces for players and time to get your forces together for a great day of gaming!

Jonathon Chester

In answer to your first question yes, you can use either (if they have joined to a unit they can use the move order too) the attack or move order but must do it in the usual sequence order. So you must activate all Feral units, then one attack order alternating with Move until one or the other runs ...

Jonathon Chester

Hi Rob, Quick query when should you normally decide what you want your commands orders to be? I remember many moons ago (probably one of the Sheffield events) you mentioned it should be done at list writing level. After being asked after realising I missed the orders part of the Player Pack for the ...

Jonathon Chester

You are correct and it is on Pg254 under Augmenting the range of an Invocation section.

Jonathon Chester

I believe yes as it still does lightning damage in the end

Jonathon Chester

Well when it says up to it actually means less than (so 80mm bases can't lift 80mm bases but then can lift 60mm bases). Looking at the muster sheets though - a gunnhrafn (80mm birdman) costs about 15 points more than a sronax tain (60mm character model). If he were able to soar and grab any model t...

Jonathon Chester

After chatting with Rob and a good think I have decided to take out the part of the pack for orders to be submitted with the lists. We will be following the rules on pages 116 & 117 as per normal.

Apologies for any confusion.

Nice start, I will be following the progress on this.

Jonathon Chester

Shootingt? fighting other infantry? also shieldwall does provide a modifier regarless of size. Also 30mm infantry are (usually) higher skilled than larger stuff so are harder to hit. Another factor Rob always says is equivalent cost should beat equivalent cost. A monster would eventually be brought ...

Icchan wrote:Yes, but is there any logical reason why the Strengths aren't listed in the army musters as well?

Nothing other than they are defined in the rulebook rather than the muster sheet. Most the time the muster sheets are references rather than full explanations bar unique rules.

Jonathon Chester

Also the question you have to ask is why are you sending human sized infantry into the big stuff expecting to parry? If you take realism into account why should a stonking great demon like Krull suffer when parying a piddly human? His axe would just go straight through.

Jonathon Chester

My answer would be the latter. Grab is powerful enough as is as I played a game yesterday in that my Draigllai killed a Sronax Tain and two tarvax with grabs.

Yes the teknomantis has the bond rule

So a scenario, A Vore charges a unit of dyndraig and elects to grab with all its Raking Claws attacks to try and get a more likely model removal. After rolls to hit the Vore got three successful strikes with its grabs which the first two Escape Tests are failed by the dyndraig player. Due to the dev...

Jonathon Chester

It’s a pretty big anchor...

Jonathon Chester

I confess I'm not really sure what you're asking me now, but I'll attempt to answer anyway... Blood-Maw Grabs with his Raking Claws. You can divide the attack dice from the Raking Claws combat weapon amongst the potential Grabbed warriors as you see fit (so he could try it on 5 Srónax, for example)...

Jonathon Chester

Thank you for clearing that up Rob

Jonathon Chester

Hmm I’m a bit stumped as on pg217 6.23.3.1.3 it states a grabbed warrior that fails its escape test becomes a dead warrior object and that devourers must make compulsory eat the object linked action. However you can only grab as many models as you have Hands or one of none are listed but you’ve eate...

Devour is a sub rule of grab I will be home in an hourish so will rule reference ASAP.

Jonathon Chester

Ah apologises I misread that as a roar action, pays to read it twice : :lol:

Jonathon Chester

Thats weird. I replied to your post and the post looks to have disappeared into the ether. A sure fire sign that it was a truly substandard post I guess. Oops. So basically I wasn't making myself clear. The grab attack itself is a very useful way of ruining the day of 60mm infantry and gaining some...

Jonathon Chester

Was thinking along the line of the Draiggoch having skill 40's being able to just pick up anything and ruin 120mm monsters days as most are >skill 30's. Think we need to take into account Rob has always said, this is a bloody game things die fast and hard.

Jonathon Chester

" The howl must be done first according to how it reads "beginning of one of its activations", so you could howl, emerge or flank, and then ambush no problem. This would be incorrect I believe, as as per the rule it is a Roar action and therefore follows the procedure for this action...
