Just played in a tournament and an odd situation came up.

I had assaulted eldrath and his squad with a Dreadnought. I do a ton of damage to his squad because of my blood talons, he does 1 immobilized result with eldrath to my Dread.

I went to roll for sweeping advance and my opponent questioned my immobile dreads ability to perform a sweeping advance.

I let it slide because It did not matter at the time, as he had already failed his LD and was under 50% so he ran away and could not rally, and he was about twelve inches from his table edge at the time, so they just ran off the table on his turn.

But, I checked P.40 and it does not disallow dreads to Sweeping Advance.

Is there a rule or FaQ I am missing?

Immobilized or stunned walkers cannot SA. Page 73.

BRB pg 72 "walkers make sweeping advances, pile-in moves and consolidations unless they are stunned or immobilised."

No, an immobilized dread is stuck in place.

As MasterSlowPoke said, it says specifically that they cannot on page 73.

Page 73, 'Walkers and Assaults' last sentence.

Or, yeah... what they said

Thank you!
