Played First Game! Have Questions...

[Grujav]

Hello,

This weekend I played a Hadross v. Nasier game and while we have recognized and dealt with several issues that came up during it LoS, SoI of the leader, etc... we still have a couple of questions.

With the Pelegarth who gets to determine what direction the enemy model is knocked back? There were situations where if the Pelegarth player got to decide the models would bounce around into other Hadross while the Hadross could send the models 2" away or into another Nasier model, so it wasn't used much.

To confirm you have to move in straight lines and you can not move through your own models, nor can you disengage and then engage all in the same move? I know some models, notably from Goritsi can do some of these thigns but as an in general rule.

The Voice Protects While engaging enemies withResonate, this model gains Defensive Expertise(x),where (x) is equal to the number of enemies it is engaging that have Resonate. Does this mean it only works when a Deepman engages an enemy or just being in contact with an enemy?? If a Deepman is engaged with two enemies with Resonate and one of them attacks does it get to use Defensive Expertise (2) against that one attack?

Thanks for your help. Our first game was a bit lopsided, due to bad dice on the Nasier part and that the Nasier force needed 7 activations while Hadross only needed 5 to move all their starting models. Still looking forward to playing some more.

The person who controls the model causing knockback controls the direction of knock back. This is true for any rule about movement. (I think. There might be one that doesn't fit)

You don't have to move in Straight line. You can move in arcs if the total distance moved is within your movement rating. Correct about moving through models and disengaging.

Being in contact is the same as being engaged. So you are correct that the deepman in that scenario would have def expertise 2 but they can still only reroll a dice once. Meaning that against a 1 die attack they couldn't force that die to be rerolled twice.

So we played almost every incident wrong. Good to know! Well, we'll do better next time.
