6th ed Rules of the Game: Dangerous Terrain, Walkers Overwatch, Disembarking

Covered another rule and learned some more from last Fri 3k battle.




Dangerous Terrain 40k6 pg 90

Once a model has taken a Dangerous Terrain test for a particular area of terrain, it does not test for that area of terrain again in the same phase.  However, if the model moves into a different area of dangerous terrain, these must be tested for as normal.

Context: In the 3k battle last Fri Harlequins moved from one Dangerous Terrain to another.  They had to test once for leaving the Dangerous Terrain they started in and again for entering a different Dangerous Terrain.


Walkers Overwatch 40k6 pg 84

Unlike other vehicles, Walkers can fire Overatch

Context: During the same battle it was wondered if walker (corrected thanks to Timothy Hamel) can perform Overwatch.


Placing Disembarking Models 40k6 pg 79

The models can then make a normal move -- Difficult and Dangerous Terrain tests should be taken as normal [sic].

Context: During the same battle after the Plague Marine Rhino's moved the Plague Marine's disembarked into Orikan's Temporal Snares and C'tan's Writhing Worldscape tripping Dangerous Terrain tests

    1. I believe they are. Not sure why it was brought up about walkers having Overwatch. I'll correct that. 40k6 mini rulebook pg 136 Wraithlord Type Mc (ch).
