Couple of quick rules queries... Jul 22, 2017 22:54:32 GMT

Just hoping to clear a few things up as try to get up to speed with MK3 an really appreciate any help on these ones.

- River Raiders can they shoot their guns, reel in then make a melee attack? or does it have to be melee then shoot? and if they say attack something in combat, then shoot something else are reeled into BtB with the other model do they suffer a free strike?

- Rask and his sacrifical bog trog malarky - Rask suffers enough damage to kill him so he sacs a bog trog but the bog trog has tough from a witch doc croc and makes the roll does that mean Rask dies as the sac model didn't? (this didn't use to be the case but worth double checking as new edition.)

- Rask and Arcane Interferance - he decides to shoot at a unit that has an upkeep on it and selects Arcane Interferance as his ammo type does the individual model hit loose the upkeep or does the whole unit?

Bog Trog Trawler - can his Harpoon Gun drag a model that is knocked down? (couldn't push knocked down models in the past but can't see anything about that now.)

River Raiders: They can do either or, all it is saying is that you can make the gun attack a long with your initial melee combat actions. They will not take a free strike cause it is a place effect, not sure on being able to shoot out of combat though.

Rask: The bogtrog can't take a tough check, cause you take a tough check at disabled not at destroyed. Call to sac specifically states that the chosen model is destroyed.

Rask and Arcane Interferance: The upkeep falls off the whole unit.

Bog Trog Trawler: Yes he can drag them.

Thanks for the reply - a Bog Trog Trawler is suddenly making my Barnabas pop n drop list the ability to knock down a warnoun and then drag them 8" towards your line so a wrastler etc can nom on them is quite tasty and might get people by surprise.

River raiders still confuse me: "Dual Attack - This model can make both melee and ranged attacks in the same activation. When this model makes its initial melee attacks or a power attack, it can also make its initial ranged attacks. This model can make ranged attacks even while in melee."

so do both melee and ranged same activation - check nice and simple but then followed by when makes a melee can then also do a ranged attack seems to indicate you have to do melee first? Guess you could yo yo with them in that they could charge the enemy get placed just in the back arc then shoot one of your own models (perhaps a feralgeist who would be immune to the damage) and reel themselves back towards your lines? Though some guides seem to indicate that they can shoot then attack which would be ace but just want to check on that one.

You can do them in any order you wish.
