![]() Secondly there are shock waves, which is probably about 1% of the attack actions. (, step 3 of resolving an action - Targeting). ![]() This requires line of sight by the rules for targeting. I can see that the answer to the FAQ might be seen as the intended rules.įirstly about 99% of cases the attack action has a target. Anya cannot Bleeding Edge through a wall. And the general rules for LoS do note that "LoS is needed for most attacks." Anya does not have an exception to this on Bleeding Edge (eg., something like an Austringer's "ignore LoS, cover, and concealment" attack with the bird).īut again, I think the FAQ for 2.10a offers the general rule: "The range of an action includes LoS." You cannot melee someone through a wall even "within range." You cannot have the Mech Rider Revel in Creation to drop a scheme marker on the other side of a wall. ") that can be applied here to get some formal rules clarity on an odd, ahem, edge case.īleeding Edge IS an attack action, fwiw. I'm mostly happy to notice that one of the principles they give in answering an FAQ item seems to give a general rules understanding ("the Range of an Action includes LoS. I definitely understand people coming to various opinions about it. It may have been the use of place relying on its common English meaning, but Place has a specific meaning in Malifaux.īut they are both suppositions and based on guessing the intent, which I don't like to do if I can help it.Īll of that is fair, and you're right that this case is less clear cut than other examples. Especially as there are probably more effects that drop a marker within range than place something within range (things like kick up dust and germinate drop and create markers anywhere within range, which to me sounds like LOS isn't needed). ![]() It could easily just refer to actions like Presto-chango which places several models, so they have to all be placed in LOS of Colette, without restricting the original scheme drop as having to be in line of sight. I can see the argument that the FAQ is supposed to clear up this rule, in which case it is a badly worded FAQ, since it fails to mention drop. I can see the argument that Bleeding edge was supposed to follow shockwave like rules, but they missed out part of the templating.
