 | | 08/01/2007 12:21 PM |  Alert | I have a Basilisk War Droid. He has Speed=10 and Strafe Attack. Does this mean that I can move 20 and strafe-attack everything I touch (like Mounted Melee Attack in DDM) or I can move only 10?
And if there is a fig farther than 6 with stealth and it has cover, can I even attack it if I do not have Acc Shot?
Thanks. | |

| | 08/01/2007 5:03 PM | Alert | | You can move only 10 if you stafe attack. If you move 20 you cannot make any attacks, hence you cannot strafe attack. | |
Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.

| | 08/03/2007 5:43 PM | Alert | With the Basilisk War Droid (one of my favourite sculpts) which has Move 10 you can;
Move 10 with Strafe & Attack.
Attack & Move 10 with Strafe.
Move 20 and Strafe without Attacking.
From the WOTC FAQ
Strafe Attack Q: I'm confused about how Strafe Attack and Accelerate
interact for the Commando on Speeder Bike or the Scout Trooper
on?Speeder Bike. How far can those characters move while using Strafe
Attack? A: They can do any of the following things: - Make a normal attack and then move up to 6 squares (using Strafe Attack, if applicable).
- Move up to 6 squares (using Strafe Attack, if applicable) and then make a normal attack.
- Move up to 12 squares using Strafe Attack.
I've missed off the move 24 bit as that has to do with accellerate which the Baslisk does no have

| | 08/03/2007 11:50 PM | Alert | | Are you kidding? Isn't it a little overpowered? Attacking and then strafe-attacking in 10, or just strafing for 20...that's great! | |

| | 08/04/2007 6:06 AM | Alert | Well if the Speeder bike (which has the standard move 6) can Strafe for 12, Basilisk can Strafe for 20.
I played the Basilisk on an open map once, my opponent swore to never play open map games again. My Basilisk wiped out his swarm squad in two rounds | |
