Special powers bypass the engagement rule. So you can use it on a non-adjacent figure.

I was kidding (that's why I used this) because it's right there in the description of this part of the forumsand is commonly asked here. I should have put the ** around it.
Blargh! Stupid Smileys. (and you are new, so you could have been serious)
I'm new?!? No you're new!! (Check my join date)
Blargh! I looked at your number of posts. (sorry)
That's alright. I don't post a lot because as you can tell, I don't often get my point across. But hey I'm glad the question dump worked out for you and just in case you didn't know, you can choose to walk, so flyers can get the road bonus.
I know, otherwise I'd be screwed when I am engaged and trying to gain height.

Yes, but is that special attacks and special powers, or just special powers?

Re: Question Dump.

We cant get people to read...the cards...the rules...the stickies...the user agreement...etc....What makes you think they would read that befre posting a question that has already been answered in that thread and/or could just have been answered if they read the cards...rules...etc?


Its not a bad idea its just alot of work for the admins to do when its not going to be used anyway which will cause more "yelling"

Well, I'm using it because it is a lot faster than reading the rules.

Here's the best example. Braxas (special power)can acid spray anyone in range engaged or not. Nilfheim (special attack)must kill off anyone he's engaged with before he can shoot at non-engaged figures.

Maybe I'll just sit here and answer questions all day. I'm batting 1000 so far. I don't have a lot of posts but I'm a big lurker and know all the rules(almost).

Really, I heard that he just had to attack who he is engaged to, and then could attack not-adjacent figures.

Only if he kills them off. If Nilf is engaged to one orc and two are close by, first he must kill the engaged orc, if not his turn is over.

Re: Question Dump.

But people already "dump" there questions in the official FAQ so why not have a dump above that that says post all questions here if you are to lazy to look up the answer.

Eventually people answer the stupidest question regardless of where it is posted so why not have a place that is open to stupid question threads and the simple answers that follow and let intelligent questions fill up the books.


EDit: They have already started doing it here for gosh sakes.!
