I'm new to this game, and so are my gaming buddies.
It's funny that when I play my AM w/SM deck, I don't have much trouble in the manner of rules and such, but with my Tau w/Eldar deck I seem to run into many rules questions.... Here are a few questions that came up in last night's game that I wanted to ask this forum:
Game was my Tau w/Eldar, versus a tough Ragnar w/AM deck- (we played the best of 3 games, and I won the 1st and 3rd game, and he won the 2nd game; all questions below came about in our 3rd game)
1) I attached 2 Gun Drones to Shadowsun, and when I attacked with her, my opponent stated that I could only use 1 Drone and thus could only do 2 AoE damage to his units.... I believed that both Drones could be activated, and thus I should cause 2 points of damage to each enemy unit, and then another 2 points of damage from my other Drone to each enemy unit.
Thus, I argued (well, not really argued but suggested) that I would do 2 damage to each enemy unit from one of my Drones, and then another 2 damage to each enemy unit from my other Drone...... My opponent believed that only a single Drone could cause damage, so a total of 2 points to each of his units.
2) During his attack turn, he activated a Catachan Outpost to give +2 Attack to a Tactical Squad Cardinis, but then used his AoE to deal 3 points of damage to each of my units.
I thought that AoE couldn't be pumped up with Catachan Outpost, only a regular Attack, and thus I argued that his AoE would only cause 1 point of damage to my units and not 3 points.
3) Can the Heavy Marker Drone be attached to enemy Warlords?
My opponent argued No, and I was of the opposite thought.
4) My opponent had Ragnar's Warcamp out. He then insisted that this card would grant double damage potential to Ragnar as well, not just Space Wolves units with his warlord.... Given the text on the card, I argued the opposite.
Thus, does Rangar's Warcamp transfer double damage to Ragnar himself? Or, does the potential to cause double damage only transfer to Space Wolves units that are with Ragnar? (I honestly think I came across a thread on these forums specifically answering this question, so apologies in advance if there is such a thread)
Thanks in advance for any replies.
