Iron Will: If Yarrick loses his last Wound, do not remove him but instead place him on his side. At the start of the Imperial Guard's next turn, roll a D6. On a 3+ he staggers back to his feet with a single Wound, bloody but defiant. If Yarrick would be placed in base contact with an enemy place him so that he is more than 1" from any enemy models....


Note the usage of "more than 1" instead of "within 1". Yarrick can stand up and teleport anywhere on the board as long as he is "more than 1" away from any enemy model.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/697648.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/697648.page GMT Re:Teleporting Yarrick . No, seriously this is just another example of really poor writing. Intention propably was something along the lines of how the Necron WBB system works. Mark the spot where Yarrick fell and measure from there where he will stand up, in case the enemy consolidation move overruns his position. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/697683.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/697683.page GMT Teleporting Yarrick

Seriously dude, you need to chill the frack out and lay off the Net Muscle Complex. Op has a legit discussion and you contribute nothing but derailment since your first post here.

Your as bad as GBF at times.


On topic:
I feel that this is nothing more then Bad writing on Gw's part. If someone tried to pull this outside of a friendly game on me the TO would get pulled into the discussion real quick.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/698214.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/698214.page GMT Teleporting Yarrick
What you need to do is unclench and let the rod out. I'm what we call "Joking"

As for the GBF comment, I take that as a Compliment.

Thirdly, OK if you want discussion: It seems that it can be twisted to allow Yarack to become a mega Cyborg Ninja Capable of traversing 9001" a turn as long as he dies. This is kind of ridiculous, but that is what it seems like. This requires an Errata to clear up, something that GW are allergic to, so we shall never have one.

How's that for a contribution?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/698218.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/698218.page GMT Teleporting Yarrick LoL...

I think the real problem is going to arise in tournaments, leagues, campaigns, and other situations where you may not get to pick your opponent. In situations where winning is rewarded more than just with a smile and a high five (or maybe a pint) players who would normally be very reasonable about the game and fun to play against are going to be tempted to exploit the rules inconsistencies in the Guard codex (orders on opponents turn, mixed accuracy barrage weaponry, etc) in order to win.

So when something like this is brought up, should the opposing player, or the judge as it may be, side with what the rules say or what they think the rules should say? If a judge isn't involved and it is resolved by a roll-off... well should something so ridiculous really have a 50% chance to succeed? That's another reason why I don't like the roll-off-for-rules-disputes idea is that it encourages arguing things tenaciously even if you're obviously wrong... but that's another thread.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/698298.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/698298.page GMT Teleporting Yarrick jp.

Agreed
if you place him 60" away from his original position, is he over 1" from an enemy model? if yes, then you have obeyed the rule whilst as Gwar said, break the spirit of the rules.

All it needs is a sentence that says "If there is an enemy model within 1" of Yarrick, move Yarrick the least amount of distance required to be over 1" from an enemy model"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/704111.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/704111.page GMT Teleporting Yarrick http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/704388.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238731/704388.page GMT Teleporting Yarrick GW to write the rules better...

It's very clear cut that only a tool would try to teleport Yarrick. It has nothing to do with the storm shield debacle.

This would instate that he could indeed teleport anywhere but only if he would be in base contact with an enemy model if he didn't, like if an enemy moved next to his body or if he was previously in an assault and because of his death it ended. If he get's shot down though then imho nothing would happen since he would not be placed in base contact with an enemy.


EDIT: I would never do this though and would never allow my opponent to either and if he continued to try to do this then I would probably not play him again.
