I figured that, so I appreciate the confirmation. Thank you both

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

I'm somewhat unfamiliar with the D&D Master set...but I know Shadow tiles give +1 to defense. For double spaced figures who are on two shadow tiles...does it give +2? one extra die for each shadow tile?

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

If Shurrak attacks a figure who cannot roll defense dice, can he still roll for Knockback?

Oops, rolled a 1.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

If it didn't roll defense dice, I guess not. Interesting question.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

But does rolling zero defense dice at the appropriate place in the combat count as rolling defense dice (Venoc Vipers, perhaps)? I mean, they still get defense bonuses that potentially let them roll actual dice at that time; so if they are not so fortunate, are they still "rolling defense dice" even though there are no actual dice being rolled?

I agree with Papa there: interesting question, philosophically speaking.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

Right. Good question. I wasn't thinking of Venoc Vipers and zero defense, but something that, literally, "cannot" roll defense dice, as MW asked. Something paralyzed by MBS, though I guess Shurrak isn't going to be attacking something on the same turn it's been paralyzed by MBS.

Anyway. I think the answer is different if it's the Venocs, or some other unit that for whatever reason *can* roll defense dice, but for the fact that its defense is zero. At that point it *can*, it just *isn't*.

Technically if you had Ornak, and you played the red flag of fury with me-burq-sa, then shurrak after it would come into play. But I've never been in that situation.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

Zero dice is indeed still a roll, you may "shake an empty fist" of zero dice to represent this.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

Can't you "move" 0 spaces? If so, wouldn't the same apply to this? Except for powers like Paralyzing Stare that state you don't roll.

If you're not rolling for Stinger Drain, you're not living.

Actually, I believe that they are still separate turns. First you take a turn with Me-burq-sa. During this turn an enemy unit is paralyzed. Then you take a turn with Shurrak. During this turn the enemy unit is no longer paralyzed.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

Right, right. If it's just "has 0 dice to roll," then yes, you can be affected by Knockback. I agree.
