Giants attack once every 4 rounds?

By Kaptain O, in WFRP Rules Questions

They seem to only have the one attack with a recharge of 4, oh and they throw 2 green dice so possibly 6 recharge?

Are they supposed to just have access to the regular melee attack?

I believe all monsters have access to all of the basic actions, so yes, it would have a basic melee swing as well.

Ok, makes sense, i just don't recall reading that anywhere.

I would quote the book, but I don't actually have it yet sad.gif . If you look in the article about adversaries, http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_news.asp?eidn=823 , there is a pdf that says "In addition to the standard Basic Actions available to all characters (assuming they meet the individual action's requirements), creatures and NPCs have access to some specific, thematic actions." Hopefully that clears it up for you.

Yup you got it, its on page 47 of the Tome of Adventure, I just missed it on my first read thru.

I was pretty sure that all monsters have access to all of the Basic Actions,.

Giants are pretty slow and retarded, though, so I'm not surprised that their major attack takes so long to recharge.
