nuttyknatty Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Hi all. So, does this CA require a hero to be on the boards in order to use it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Sutek Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Unlike other CA's it doesn't reference needing to be within a certain distance of a hero. However the core rules say that that CA's need to be issued so I think there would need to be a hero on the board to do this. It says you have to pick a friendly model to issue it which would have to be a hero or totem as the unit champion would have been destroyed with the unit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 yukishiro1 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 If the question is whether you have to issue it from a hero - this is sort-of addressed in the FAQ to the core rules. There's a long section on command abilities where it breaks them down into different categories, but this is the only one that seems to fit: Quote Some older command abilities only affect a single unit, usually the one that issues the command, or do not affect any other units at all. When this is the case, the command is assumed to have been issued and received by the unit specified in the command ability. For example, the Booming Roar command ability from the Allherd subfaction in Battletome: Beasts of Chaos says: ‘You can use this command ability at the start of your hero phase if your general is on the battlefield. If you do so, you receive 1 Primordial Call point.’ This command ability is issued and received by your general (if they are on the battlefield). So I think the answer here is that you don't need anything on the field to do this except the unit itself - which weirdly in this case uses the CA when it is destroyed, so technically the unit using the CA isn't even on the table any more itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
