Re: The Book of Zogross Hardscale
It seems that Zogross' card is no more inconsistent with the BTFU "targeting" language that the others Shedim cites. I'm fine with that.
But I also agree with killercactus' perspective, in that I don't see why an opponent would get to choose a new figure after Opportunity Strike activates. The power states, "no dice are rolled for this attack." To me, that's a plain text indication that "this attack" is indeed an attack -- just one with no dice. Since the opponent's figure has attacked, it can't normally do so again without some other ability that allows it. If the intention of the designers is explicitly to allow multiple/repeating "choices of target" -- each with its own opportunity strike -- until opportunity strike fails, I'm fine with that, too (not that anyone asked). I just think the card text is ambiguous enough that a front-page clarification/example is needed. It would be great if the example also made it clear whether an opponent can keep attempting to attack the same figure repeatedly -- which would seem to be the case if multiple attempts are generally allowed. * Available: Confrontation & other minis for C3V units (various Varks, Cultists, Gnids, etc.) * My Sale/Trade List The Orphanage - HS Figure Exchange (My available/wanted orphans) Last edited by Grison; November 6th, 2012 at 07:17 PM.

Re: The Book of Zogross Hardscale
You know, having looked through all the cards that have melee special attacks that target someone, one thing really stands out: They are either derived ranged special attacks, or are using 'targeted' were 'chosen' would make more sense. That makes me think that 'melee targeting' might be the result of some copy pasting and typos.

Re: The Book of Zogross Hardscale
Okay, first thing, guys: go back in this very thread and read posts #41 through #53.

The easiest way to think of it is that targeting == choosing to attack. You can choose a figure to attack, or you can choose a figure for other things. "Choose" is commonly used instead of "target" in two situations:

It makes a lot more sense if Opportunity Strike ends the attack, than allows re-targeting... |

Re: The Book of Zogross Hardscale
Actually, the "repeated attempts" issue was indeed the major question, at least from my perspective:
Quote:
With repect to a first-post FAQ entry, how about something like the following: Q: If Opportunity Strike is successful, can the affected opponent choose a new target (as with the Nakita's Smoke Powder) and/or re-attempt their attack? A: No. Opportunity strike does not prevent you from attacking like Smoke Powder; it negates the attack instead. Unless the opponent has multiple attacks, they're done. * Available: Confrontation & other minis for C3V units (various Varks, Cultists, Gnids, etc.) * My Sale/Trade List The Orphanage - HS Figure Exchange (My available/wanted orphans) |

Re: The Book of Zogross Hardscale
Zogross Hardscale is probably my favorite C3V figure he also made me revise my belief that customs aren't compatible with official units. Thanks for changing my mind those who designed and play tested Zogross. Great job!

Re: The Book of Zogross Hardscale
He is sorta like a better Parimino who deals damage on his defy death. I like combining him with the Romans. I haven't tried him with Armocs or Greenscales though I plan to.

Re: The Book of Zogross Hardscale
Interesting, I've only ever played Zogross with Armocs/Greenscales. Does losing Tribal Protection still make Zogross worth it in a Roman build? I'd just attack Zogross rather than risk an Opportunity Strike wound.

Re: The Book of Zogross Hardscale
But then your not attacking romans, thereby increasing their longevity... But yeah, he's not worth it almost at all.
