Hey guys, this is an old one that came back to haunt me the other day:
Warpwolf Stalker can warp for Berserk - when destroys one or more models w a melee attack during combat action, must immediately make an additional melee attack against another model in melee range. [paraphrased in case of legal issues, pls check the WarRoom entry]
Key question: Do the berserk attacks have the ability to trigger further berserk attacks?
Normally rules like this would specify if they can’t, but I don’t see it so assuming the berserk rage means the new melee attack (if it destroys another model) is still a “melee attack” and thus triggers an immediate extra melee attack .... ongoing.
We’d never found a ruling on it in Mk2 so had rolled for it, but for one we’d forgotten what we’d agreed on and two, there must be an official stance on this.
I’d basically warped Berserk, (with Kromac1’s Wild Aggression up) charged into a unit, killed about 5 dudes, then Warpath’d 3” into the rest and mulched another 5.
I’d not used it in over a year so he was both surprised and upset.
(Warpath is an immediate trigger too, so assuming as the active player I get to determine which immediate triggers 1st.
The result being Stalker charged for free (Wild Aggro), killed 10 models and could force a free Lightning Strike under CoW Theme, to Sprint away 6” after.
Am I doing it right?
