A unit of NG netters are in combat with an enmy unit, both facing the other. Enemy unit gets charged in another facing (i.e. flank or rear) then in CC, the netters successfully net the enemy unit to make them -1S.
Does the strength penalty apply to the enemy members attacking the 2nd unit OR is it only the ones fighting the netters

What's your opinions ?

thanks

That unit's -1S is a general modifier, not specific to the unit that caused it - otherwise the roll of a 1 would not be so bad.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/411489/3585362.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/411489/3585362.page GMT Re:NG netters - affect on enemy if flanked
If the enemy are for example, 5 ranks deep, is the back rank as equally netted as the front rank, therefore also at -1S - them gobbos would be carrying long nets.

I suspect the answer is yes, as the game mechanics do not allow for any other result, but would like to see what everyone else believes ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/411489/3589042.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/411489/3589042.page GMT Re:NG netters - affect on enemy if flanked unit that has its strength reduced by 1. So if the target unit is successfully netted, and flanked on both sides and rear charged, it does not matter which side they fight on, they are still at -1 strength.

It may seem silly to think the nets are that long, but I am sure people could come up with plenty of fluff reasons as to why the nets might have an effect on the whole unit.

I think it is very imaginable that goblin netters who throw their nets on a unit which is already in combat will net the whole unit =D ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/411489/3589332.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/411489/3589332.page GMT Re:NG netters - affect on enemy if flanked

This is correct. The Netters rule says the unit, not the models in base contact. So even if the unit only has one model in B2B contact, the entire unit is affected regardless of where/what they are fighting.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/411489/3589342.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/411489/3589342.page GMT
