Hi everyone.

So, can a walker that is attacked via a Boarding Plank hit back at the model attacking it? We have previously played that it can´t, but I´m not really sure.

It cannot - only the model making the attacks is classed as "exactly as if in close combat" - the walker does not have this stipulation, so isnt counted as being in combat...

Thanks for the quick reply . Ok, that was what I thought.

Confirming nosferatu1001 is 100% correct!
