<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Assault w/ multiple units (and vehicles) "]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/15.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Assault w/ multiple units (and vehicles)
Gamer A assaulted a small squad, along with two vehicles parked next to each other. Followed all of the rules for multiple assaults.

Gamer BS squad survived, as did the vehicles. Next turn the vehicles moved away and the assault squad was strung out in a line...yet couldn't be shot. What should have happened?

Options:

A) Ignore the vehicles, pile in to the infantry unit.
B) We played it right
C) Something else I'm not thinking of]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348055.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348055.page GMT Re:Assault w/ multiple units (and vehicles) CC.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348092.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348092.page GMT Re:Assault w/ multiple units (and vehicles)
If the vehicles had not driven away you could have assaulted them again. When they drove away in the movement phase it freed you to snuggle up during the next assault phase.

Vehicles can not be locked unless they have a WS so you have no compunction to hang out with them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348099.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348099.page GMT Re:Assault w/ multiple units (and vehicles)

I want to make sure we don't mix terms and I don't start becoming confused (Which is easy to accomplish).

When you state 'consolidation' you actually mean 'Pile in'. I don't think I would be able to consolidate, as I'm still engaged at the far end of the line with the infantry squad (Remember, I was in combat with both infantry and tanks).

If you do mean 'Pile In', this doesn't happen until the end of an assault phase. So again, that leaves the other 8 or so members of the squad standing in a line during his combat phase (provided he drove his vehicle away). ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348111.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348111.page GMT Re:Assault w/ multiple units (and vehicles)
Page 63, col. 2, para. 1

'In a multiple fight including enemy vehicles and other unit types, the result of the fight is worked out as normal against the latter, ignoring the vehicles'

So, I would pile in the turn I charged, ignoring the vehicles (and even moving out of base to base with them, which kind of blows if you immobilised it)

However, what about this scenario?


X My assault unit
Y His infantry units
O His tank units


I assault like this:


YY O YY
X X X X X X

The vehicle moves away and both infantry units are still engaged...what do I do with the guys in the middle?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348119.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348119.page GMT Assault w/ multiple units (and vehicles) http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348130.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/215891/348130.page GMT Re:Assault w/ multiple units (and vehicles) has that rule changed?

has that rule changed?

Eric


I had to look this up to make sure;

'After the combat has been resolved, it might happen that some models from units that did not fall back from the combat are not in base contact with an enemy. These models must make a pile-in move.'

i said it should prolly be able to shoot it because it didnt have a weapon skill, but im not sure since i cant move, it should of been able to fire one of its sponson weapons at the wraith lord since it assaulted from the side. is this how it should of been played?

This question is CLEARLY answered in the rulebook.
