 | | 05/04/2008 10:08 PM |  Alert | The Dwarf Warlord's card states - [] Drive into Peril; +19 vrs AC; 30 Damage AND push target up to 2 squares;
The definition of Push in the rule book is - a creature pushed away from the acting creature must move into a square that is farther from the acting creature.
I'm kinda thrown by the words 'up to' in the Warlord's card.
My question is this, when I choose to employ Drive into Peril, can I choose NOT TO push my opponent's mini at all. As the card states that I can push UP TO 2 squares and that means zero squares is also legit? But that doesn't go with the book's Push definition of being farther away from acting creature. | |

| | 05/05/2008 1:28 AM | Alert | You can push 0, 1 or 2 squares.
What the rulebook says is this: there are three kinds of moving effects - push, pull, slide. Every square a creature is pushed/pulled into must be farther/closer from the acting creature. If you push 0, no push happens. | |

So if no push happens then Drive into Peril is not used? That would be my ruling.
So say a Death Knight were based to the Dwarf Warlord and the Dwarf's player 'A' uses the Drive into Peril special power, can Player 'A' choose to push the Death Knight 0 squares and have the Death Knight STILL base the Dwarf Warlord for whatever reason? | |

No, the drive ino peril would still be used, because the attack and damage of it are being utilized.

If no push happens is that legal?
I mean, if the mini can be legally pushed away but I choose to push 0 squares - is that legal? | |

Right. Drive into Peril is used. I agree.
It's just not sitting easy with me that I can choose to push a mini 0 sqaures if I choose to. | |
