I've just started playing a couple of months ago so I'm not sure about alot of things and the people I play with pretty much rely on me to get the info.
Question 1: With the Caller in Darkness' concussion blast, it has in brackets (2 nearest). Does that mean 2 nearest targets or was it suppost to be a radius 2 nearest attack?
Question 2: With the Ultraloth, Dominate. What is dominate and how does it work? Do you get to controll the other players dominated figure as if it were your own? (Including champ powers, special ab., etc?)
If so, If you end up using all the champ powers, if the other player gains controll of their piece back, are they out of champ powers? | | | |

| 1) The two nearest targets.
2) Dominate is defined here.
Dominate: The affected creature cannot use special powers, use immediate actions, or make opportunity attacks. When this creature is activated by its player, the opposing player gains control of it, and controls the creature as if it were part of his own warband. On the dominated creature’s turn, the only sort of attacks it can use are basic attacks.

| | Can a dominated creature make a charge, or is that not considered a basic attack? | |

Okay, I have 2 more questions,
1. If a rider is staggered, and the mount charges, does the rider get to make the attack with the mount?
ex)
Staggered says you can't use attack actions other then making a basic attack. (dwarf rider)
rabid charger: when charging with a rider, the rider and this creature can each make b melee attack. (thundertusk boar)
In the victory points mounts faq, A question asked is,
Q. The thundertusk boars rabid charger and the warhorses charger ability grant the rider a free attack when charging. In which order do the mount and rider attack? Do both rider and mount attacks have to be against the same target?
A. Both rider and the mount must attack the target of the charge. Both must satisfy the requirements of a charge to attack: they must attack while adjacent and in the space nearest the enemy.
If a charge is not considered a basic attack, does the rider still get to attack or do the requirements of the charge that victory points was refering to only refer to nearest enemy and adjacent?
2. I know you can block a teleporter by standing on it, but while your standing on it can you send allies through it since you can move though your allies or must the telepoter be clear for creatures to move though it on both sides. | | | |

| 1. I think a staggered rider still can make that attack. Dazed or Stunned wouldn't though.
2. A piece can use (i.e. go into) an occupied teleporter so long as it can legally enter its space. So, allies can do this, and fliers can enter a non-flying enemy's space.

No the rider cannot make the attack. Staggered is on the condition track after dazed and before stun. So staggered includes dazed meanin a creature cannot act out of its turn if staggered. | |

| Man, my two questions just keep growing. Can anyone tell that I'm up against EB and Wulfgar and deldorn mounted teams? Sigh.
If a mount, with rider, were adjacent to a character and decided to move away causing an attack of opportunity, can the AoO target the rider instead of the mount?
The rider has a movement of zero and is technically not moving but the mount is moving the rider. This came up when a boar went to move away to create distance for a charge. When the option of AoO came up the player stated only the boar could be targeted because it was the one activating and the rider had a movement of zero so wasn't tech. moving. The rider was a CoDeldorn so with the defender ability this made an AoO kind of brutal and not worth doing.
It would be nice to know that you could target the rider to make this less brutal as the rider is also not being pushed, pulled or sliding (which would not grant an AoO) | | | |

| Hey Dave, Do you think you can answer the rider of a mount question? I'm just asking cause you've been very helpful.
Thanx. | | | |
