Corpses cart and Invo of Nehek

Post by Hiss »

Can a necro, using a corpes cart as a mount, can march ?
as it's a monster

can you cast Invo of Nehek on a unit in Close Combat ?
as it's not really write

by the way thanks for the others answers.

1. It's a monster, so it follows those rules as normal with regard to movement.

2. The jury is still out. A lot of people feel the answer is yes, but there is nothing concrete since there is not an explicit allowance to do so.

And please use 'thanks' rather than 'thx' - textspeak is against the forum rules. Thank you for your co-operation.

Hiss: Alessio has said that IoN is intended to be used in close combat and so has the GW Canada team. Its really not in contention anymore imo.

We'll know for sure on the 15th when the FAQ is (supposedly) being released. ;)

I think that anyone who tries to stop you casting it into combat is being really picky and you should question whether you want to play them.

The intention is obvious and I haven't seen anyone question it yet. So carry on and happy gaming.

you will be happy to know that IoN is now updated in the FAQ. You can cast it into combat (as sad as it may be that that actually needed to be cleared up).

And the corpse cart moves as monster - no march movement unless a vampire is near
If a necro is on the corpse cart though, it ca march and if the necro dies, no 'monster reaction' test is required BUT! if you were in a unit, the corpse cart is forced out of its unit.

and if it was in the middle of the unit... it's forced to the closest point which means most of the time *In Front*

The FAQ for the Corpse Cart is just stupid. Why oh why it isn't just classed as a chariot is beyond me....!

Because it doesnt follow the rules for a chariot, it isnt autodistroyed by S7 and can join units when mounted etc. A better question is: why wasnt it classed as a monster.
