Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

I'm just clarifying something here...

If a figure is on the Glyph of Proftaka (Pit Trap) can they attack? I would assume they may attack while on the glyph, because the rules do not state that they may not attack.

My only thoughts are that if I'm stuck in a pit, I probably would be unable to shoot at an opponent.

(Unless of course, it is a very shallow pit, but then it wouldn't be a very good trap.)
(Actually, if the opponent were adjacent and looking down into a deep pit, I suppose that I could shoot them, but then they probably wouldn't help me.)
(Even if they were predisposed to help an opponent.)
(And they might get blood on me.)

Yes. You may attack on Proftka.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

Can the Airborne lob over the castle walls?
Base=1
Wall = 9
Low part of the rampart = 2? or 3?
The FoTA rules say a rampart is 3 outside and 2 inside.

So a typical wall section is 13?

I don't think so. Assuming lob is 13, it cannot go over a normal wall with the ramparts.

Lob has a height limit of 12, so if the wall has a battlement, they can not Lob over it. That being said, if there is not a battlement in line with the direction of the Lob, they can (assuming they are on even ground with the base of the wall).

Of course this raises the question of why didn't you just Drop onto the wall in the first place...

Nope. Sorry. Only OMs on your own cards.
It wouldn't matter even if you could; the markers come off the card when you successfully mind shackle the unit.

Nope. You get to choose the order in which the attacks occur.

I think you're confusing the engagement rules.

If YOUR ranged fig is engaged it must attack any figures that are engaged to it and destroy them first before it can use a ranged attack on another unit.

If one of your ranged squad figures is engaged. Your other ranged squad figures can attack the fig it's engaged to first to destroy it, which frees your (previously) engaged squad fig to use it's ranged attack on other figures. So, no, the engaged fig doesn't need to attack first.

It may be worth pointing out that they are not forced to. They can attack any legal target, not attack at all, or any combination.

Don't think of it as being outnumbered. Think of it as having a wide shot selection!
