One with the trees

The rule says once per game, in a single Tembrithil activation, any model may move to the center of a summoned woods and pass from that woods to another summoned woods.

 

So is it saying "any model":

 

As in a single model may pass through,

 

or

 

"Any model" as in any model that moves to the center, which could be an entire troop passes through?

 

If it said "any models" that would be clear, it is confusing because the first two phrases definitely use singular language with "once" and "single". But the third part where it says "any model may move to the center of a summoned woods and pass from that woods to another summoned woods", could be interpreted as any model that moves to the center passes through and an is an entire troop could move to the center one by one.

Are those the exact words? I ask cause I don't have a SN copy. (My LGS is refusing to charge the correct price on the item and so I refuse to buy it from them.)

Once per game, during a single Tembrithil Activation, any model moving to the center point of a Summer Blossom woods may continue their movement from the center point of a different Summer Blossom woods. This requires at least two Summer Blossom woods to be active at the same time.

The noun-pronoun agreement would be fixed with either of these variants:

The original sentence is from: Warlord Second Edition: Savage North, page 150. (It's near the bottom of the page; I added the bold to pick out the words RG is on about; in the book the subtitle is italicized and capitalized as I show it above.)

 

"Woods", plural, helps confuse things.

 

I think all the models in the activated troop could do this as long as they had enough movement to reach a jump-off point.

Jaein? I guess it's confusing? The noun pronoun agreement is problematic but it didn't really hinder my ability to understand the rule. "Woods" is a strange plural. In common usage it can refer to one or many forested areas. For example: If you go out in the woods today you're sure of a big surprise. If I were to say my child is playing in the wood. One could gather two meanings from it. Either my child is playing in my wood pile or the forest. So in order to avoid confusion woods many times refers to the singular forested area.

 

I guess I'm failing to understand the OP's question. Sorry. ::(:

The question is: When the portal opens, can only a single model pass through the portal or can any number of models pass through the portal?

 

I tend to agree with WizardOne that any number can pass through.
