While playing a match last night with my sisters vs space marines I ran into a problem/rule that didnt seem right. Celestine was in combat and got assaulted by a dreadnaught. I was able to kill the marines but with her st being 3 couldn't hurt the dreadnaught. So by rules I can't do anything but hope to die since I can't run or hurt it? Kept her locked up for 5 turns

She has krak grenades so can hurt most dreads. But yes, Fearless doesn't get to run away if they can't hurt something.

This is also why you take a Seraphim retinue for Celestine. They give her Hit & Run.

She had serephim with her during the deep strike and they took a lot of fire from the quad gun intercepting. It was just a bad game. There were a lot of questionable stuff during the match. Wasn't fun from turn one. But thanks for the rule clarification.

Ahh, well there's part of the problem. Never DS Celestine.

Fact. lol

Yeah, you deepstrike things to get them into a good position or protect them from early shooting.

She's ridiculously mobile, can't be locked down by assault while her retinue lives (even when they're dead, she has her own 'play possum and run' USR) and you could care less if she gets shot down with early shooting.

(In fact, I pray my opponent tries to get first blood off her.)
