During a game we started discussing the Hammer of Heaven's "Grab" ability.
Grab: Enemies targeted by this attack are forced into contact with this model.
Now, how flexible is this attack really? By "forced into contact" does it mean the target receives a "forced move" which should bring the targeted model into contact with the Hammer of Heaven? Or should the targeted model simply be picked up and relocated into contact?
If it is indeed a forced move, is there a limit to the distance? Obviously the attack itself has only a 2" range, but if the attack is made over an intervening, non-blocking (such as a line of other models), can the forced move[/] have the target move the long way around all interposing models? And could the Hammer of Heaven's player bring the targeted model into contact in such a way that it forces the targeted model into contact with other models as well - at a different angel than the shortest possible distance into contact?
I can't find anything that indicates that forced movement has have to be in a straight line?
On the other hand if there is no movement involved, just a relocation into contact with the Hammer of Haeven: What if there is no room to place the targeted model in contact? Is the whol relocation cancelled, or should the targeted model be placed "as close as possible"?
