Had this come up in a game last night. Barnabas had warpath up and an already engaged Wrastler destroys a CoC heavy only using his first initial triggering warpath. He uses the move from warpath to get into melee now with both the reconstructed jack and his caster. The reconstructed jack just stayed where it was. I used the warpath move to sneak round it's back arc.

Now the question is, as I've broken off via warpath and my initial target being destroyed do I still get my other initials against something else or not? I was leaning towards yes during the game but went with no and thought I'd ask on here later for clarification.

Why wouldn't you? You are only forced to make the charge attack against your initial charge target (and even then, only if you are able to do so), all of your other initial attacks can go to any other target that you want even if you original target is still alive, that whole warpath / reconstruct thing that you had going has absolutely no influence in this.

Just thought I'd ask as I couldn't find anything in the rulebook and at the time didn't want to bog the game down flicking through the rulebook.

I just went with the least powerful of the two choices to be sportsmanlike. Good to know for future reference anyway.

Yeah, you can take normal initial attacks against anyone in range (or who comes into range) they don't all have to be at the same target.

However, assuming I'm reading you correctly, warpath was triggered incorrectly in your scenario - warpath requires a model to be destroyed, whereas reconstruct triggers on Disabled (IIRC) and the model isn't actually destroyed, so you wouldn't get the warpath movement until you actually killed it. Obviously if left it in melee range of your Wrastler though, you could have just killed it again anyway with your other initials to trigger warpath.

Ah! Good catch! Missed that one when playing.
