(And yes, I need to get out more).<br /><br />The recent GW FAQ update made me ponder over many of the questions that crop up often during my games (hence the majority being IG-related in one way or another).<br /><br />I'm sure we'll have more soon next time round, but thanks to all who took the trouble to answer the past 3 posts!Menzies Tankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16442136130180768750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6774997766356173689.post-2336135307339619312010-11-24T07:32:07.006-08:002010-11-24T07:32:07.006-08:001. - RAW yes, you can always argue they've cut...1. - RAW yes, you can always argue they've cut/shot holes in the roof.<br /><br />1.1 - http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/m1064-mortar2.jpg<br /><br />1.2 - RAW yes, I'd just take it as an abstraction of the ruin's shape<br /><br />2/2.1 - I suspect a RAW answer leans more towards no, but I'd allow it for both.<br /><br />3. - Sure, the officer is just telling them 'the Emperor wants you to run over there as fast as you can etc".<br /><br />4. - Depends how it's defined. If it's a case of 'this cliff cannot be scaled by foot troops, but jump/skimmers can land on it' (a mesa for instance), then yes, but he'd be stuck.<br />If it is simply 100% impassible and nothing can end its movement there (a chemical lake), then no.<br /><br />5.1 No to vehicles, yes to buildings.<br /><br />6. - No. despite the description of the field being similar, the only game effect given is that wounds must be re-rolled with nothing about saving throws.<br /><br />7. Not a psyker gamewise. For the background the soul binding imparts the Emperor's power onto them to make them far, far more resistant to possession and the like, so it could be argued that protects against the powers to a degree.<br /><br />8/9 No, they could just be psychically sensitive or have some for of advanced scanner. The null rod could have a dampener so the =I= can turn off the effects for the Astropath's signal to get through.Gotthammerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09192437339888042580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6774997766356173689.post-39407215678993329762010-11-23T16:07:44.367-08:002010-11-23T16:07:44.367-08:00Jeez, you people need to get out more.
1) With mo...Jeez, you people need to get out more.<br /><br />1) With mortars, I think common sense simply must prevail. Funnily enough I was wondering this whilst playing on a ‘tunnels’ board… I’d say only if they can fire upwards/out of the top.<br /><br />1.1) Yes, assuming it’s not moved. It is a mortar hatch, after all.<br /><br />1.2) As (1). I’d use the actual terrain to judge this, as you would line of sight (only indirect)<br /><br />2) Interesting! I’d say ‘yes’, but I’d suspect the official line would be ‘no’.<br />I’d extend the same to the second part.<br /><br />2.1) Ditto, although it’d be a crying shame fluff-wise if this were outlawed!<br /><br />3) Dunno<br /><br />4) Ooh! I’d like to think so, not least because of the picture. But I’d say no – it’d only be used as an unfair advantage…which’d spoil the fun of using Marbo!<br /><br />5) No.<br /><br />5.1) No to vehicles, but (along the same lines as orders above) I think buildings ought to be allowed. That makes sense. Hiding under the seat in a chimera doesn’t.<br /><br />6) Ooh! Dunno.<br /><br />7) Definitely not.<br /><br />Hope that’s of use/interest…Admiral Draxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07476823273954165890noreply@blogger.com
