Fixing Issues

Its sad but necessary: the first Godslayer Errata is on its way! Wehave tried our best to avoid any mistakes or issues in the Godslayer- Rise of Legends rulebook but even after the hundredth proofreadby the hundredth guy, there were still some issues that were notrecognized and which need fixing.

ClarificationsBesides fixing some of the issues we have discovered so far, we also

have some clarifications to make based on discussions about severalrules going on in the forums. We thought it would be a nice idea toclarify the most important discussions right here in this document.

This is not really an errata, more a clarification for those thatstumble over the same game situations or questions.

enchanted attacksSometimes specific rules refer toEnchanted Attacks. When reading

the rulebook you will be able to see what counts as an enchantedattack but the information is spread across several chapters. So to easeit up, heres a short summary:

All items that can be used to perform an attack cause enchantedattacks (such as weapon items). Spell and Magic Attacks also countas enchanted attacks.

halving damageSome items or effects allow you to halve the damage a model has

suffered. This halving is always done after the final damage the modelwould suffer has been determined, which means after the ARM valuehas been subtracted, etc.

ignore shieldsYou may have already encountered some foes that simply ignore

shield bonuses with, e.g., their morning stars. Models that ignore

shield bonuses only ignore the shield bonus itself, not shield-basedbonuses of effects or tactics like Testudo, Shieldwall or Phalanx.

combat actionsCombat action always refers to MEL, MIS or MAG attacks, but

not to spell attacks.

spellcaster unitsIf a spellcaster unit casts a spell, the unit pays the ACT for the spell

casting action, but each individual unit member may choose its targetand will perform a separate spell casting roll.

sight value 0Models with a sight value of 0 cannot provide screening or cover

to other models.

dice modificationsIn some rare occasions it might happen that a dice roll is affected

by two effects at the same time that would both increase and decreasethe amount of dice used for the dice roll. E.g. this happens when theImperial Platemail and Grace of Achallon are both in affect. In thisspecific case you should apply both effects, but you would roll afourth die and remove the lowest and highest one. On other occasionsthat are similar to that, please do the same!

ending tacticsNo tactic might be voluntarily ended. A tactic always lasts as long as

it description says or ends, when a new tactic of the same type (self,friendly or enemy) is applied.

slay movement and destroyed modelsWe noticed that it may occur that a model is destroyed but not

removed from play, e.g. by Defiant in Death. In all such cases, whereit says that the model has been destroyed, the normal rules for slaymovement can be applied. If the destroyed model is not yet removedfrom play and may still perform actions, please note that movingaway from it by slay movement might cause a free strike.

declaring activationsIt is not necessary to declare all the activations you are going to

make during your turn at the beginning of that turn. You can simplystart with one activation and after that decide to activate somethingelse or not.

protection rollsPlease note that a model may only benefit from a protection roll

against normal damage and critical hit damage (even though thecritical hit causes direct damage). A model may not benefot from itsprotection roll against other forms of direct damage causing attacks only against direct damage caused by critical hits.

obstaclesBefore a game it should be agreed if obstacles with a sight value

of less than 1 may be crossed by models with a sight value of 1. Werecommend that you round down the sight value of obstacles so that

models with a sight value of 1 may cross obstacles that are only 0.5inch high.

haze effectsA haze effect blocks line of sight to models positioned completely

behind it but not to models that are within a haze effect. Modelsentirely or even partially inside a haze effect count as being in coverfor models outside of it and do not suffer any line of sight penaltiesfrom the haze effect they are in.

critical hits with no act costsAttacks that cost 0 ACT can never result in a critical hit. Also attacks

that are made as part of a tactic, ability or talent can never result in acritical hit if they do not have a real specified ACT cost other than that

of the tactic, ability or special talent itself.

interrupting actionsSometimes it may happen that an action of a model or a unit gets

interrupted, e.g. when the Syntarch uses counter-strike on a chargingmodel/unit. In this case the model whose action is interrupted cannotperform any additional actions like counter attacks, etc. because youare not allowed to start a new action until you complete your currentaction.

knocked down and stationary modelsKnocked down and stationary models never engage other models.
