Jump Back
« on: February 26, 2008, 10:24:13 PM »
So a I had a question come up today while playing. Can a Callidus Assassin use the Jump Back ability during its own assault phase and charge the unit she just jumped away from? I don't think so but we couldn't really find anything that gave a definite answer either way. What are your thoughts? Is there something we missed?
In friendly games settle it in whatever way you traditionally use; D6 rolls, drinking contests, bareknuckle fisticuffs, or competetive haiku poetry.

From memory, it happens at the start or end of the assault phase.

Its the start for the Callidus. Hit and Run happens at the end.

Yes she jumps pack at the start of the phase and can then do whatever she likes...

Remember that you can do it in the enemy assault phase, but they can't charge her because it says the enemy can only consolodate.

Can't the enemy consolidate into her, though? I thought that didn't count as charging.

Yes they can try if they like, they don't get to fight that turn though because consolodation is at the end of the phase. Most likely is that instead of actually getting away she ends up irriratingly tieing up combat monsters all game...

Hmm, well alright then. I assume that enemy units other then the one she jumped from have no problems charging her then either, correct?
