So I have been pondering this for a little while now.

When I use the Destroyer and use its Bulldozer ability, to push into groups of models ready to either start hitting or just explode How does it really work?

The card says that as I move any model in base contact I can push up to 2" directly away.
As I understand it, I can do it repeatably if I wanted to, pushing a model back 2", continuing my move into them again and pushing again.
The only limit to this is that if they contact another model or scenery, they immediately stop and don't take damage and I can't continue to push (as they have nowhere to go and I don't have the ability to move the model behind them).
Lastly, can I chose how far they move (up to the 2") or is it the minimum distance to get out of my way but up to 2" ?

Have I got this right or have I got the wrong end of the stick on this one?
Thanks!

1) You will note that Bulldoze says a model can be pushed by Bulldoze only once per activiation. So when your Destroyer activates and it pushes a model, that individual model can only be pushed by Bulldoze once by that Destroyer during the Destroyer's current activation. If the Destroyer activated again for some reason, or another model with Bulldoze pushed it, the same model could get pushed again.

2) You can choose the distance, it doesn't have to be the full 2". This is not slowed by difficult terrain, its only stopped by impassable terrain or obstacles/other models.

Just a thing, the destroyer doesn't have Bulldoze, only the devastator, the demolisher and Black Ivan

He probably means Demolisher or Devastator. The Spriggan has it too.

Yeah, it can be tough to keep those similar sounding names straight.

Khador is like 40k. It loves D.

Decimator, Demolisher, Destroyer, Devastator Drago.....

Every time I hear Devastator I immediately think of the Transformers.

Yes they are hard to get right I find

The one that plows forward and then opens up and explodes everything in base contact

Its such a fun idea I just had to add one to the army
The other one with the 2 cannons AND the bulldozer blades just seemed a bit OP being able to sit at range to fire while the other one had to get close to do the same thing.

Not quite OP. The range on the shooty one is only 8 inches. And once you shoot or rain of of death, you open and become armor 17

Yup, and Arm17 is very poor for a heavy.

I've taken out 2 systems on an open clamjack with a piddly little pow14.
