No, he had it right the first time, it is Segway.

He models all of his infantry on small two wheeled chariots....]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/283872/1405631.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/283872/1405631.page GMT Dire Avengers and their Defend Skill http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/283872/1406412.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/283872/1406412.page GMT Re:Dire Avengers and their Defend Skill directing their attacks towards the exarch's squad lose one attack in each assault phase," it only persists if those models continue to direct their attacks at the exarch's squad, despite the fact that he is alive and in combat.

Because it says "directing" and not "have directed," that leads me to believe that the penalty does not carry over from last round.

So if you are involved in a multiple combat, you can choose to attack a different unit and not suffer the penalty. Or, if you kill the dire avengers, and attack something else, again, you're no longer "directing" attacks at the exarch's squad.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/283872/1409533.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/283872/1409533.page GMT
