Brushmaster Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Under the description of "Volley" it states that "they may particiate in Indirect Volley Ranged Attacks in Troops led by a Model with the Blazer special ability ." Therefore as I understand it the Troop leader must have Blazer SA , I don't know of any leader model that has it , only a few elites . Comment and corrections welcome .

Saint of Sinners Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Yer leader doesn't have to have blazer... just someone in the troop does. Currently I can only think of two models with blazer Cearwyn and the elven merc chic (can't think of her name)... Any way both are elite models so you'll have use a leader model that is capitable of fielding elites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All-Terrain Monkey Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Think of the "led by" as more leading the volley than the troop. The leader of the troop does not require blazer, just whichever model is being used to determine the LOS of the volley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushmaster Posted June 5, 2005 Author Share Posted June 5, 2005 Yeh I agree with the comments but the wording says "led" which infers that it must be a leader . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vil-hatarn Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Yes, it means the leader of the volley (the model with Blazer), not the leader of the troop, since if that was the case no one could volley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denryuu Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 So... can I not volley with my skeleton archers in an all Necropolis army? If so (which it seems to be), thats a bit annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All-Terrain Monkey Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Um, why would you not be able to? All you need to volley is 5 models in base to base contact. Now, if you were trying to Indirect Volley but had no models with Blazer you'd be out of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushmaster Posted June 9, 2005 Author Share Posted June 9, 2005 Lets clear up my original statement ! It did not refer to the ability to volley or not . I was referring to the quote from the rules book about indirect volley . The book seems to say that you can not perform an indirect volley unless your leader has the blazer SA . I'm not sure now . Your skelies can volley they just can't perform an indirect volley because their faction does not have anyone that has the Blazer SA . Now I'll get back in my box and be good!!

Denryuu Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Okay, sorry. My bad. I read "Indirect Volley Ranged Attack" as "Volley Ranged Attack" for the 7 some times I have read the first post in this topic. I guess my eyes don't like the word "indirect" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
