Speeder Keyword Questions

By KiraYamatoSF, in Rules

Both the speeder bikes and t-47 have the speeder keyword and I just want to double check the ruling for it. The ability lets you ignore terrain that is height "x" or lower when moving. So my question is

When a speeder does its compulsory move and it wants to go somewhere and the end of the movement tool lands it on say a barricade, object, unit, or something else that is lower than height x does it still have to travel back on the tool til it fits and then suffer wounds? Seems silly that a t-47 would take wounds from say a barricade like this.

Also if I can make it on top of a building of height 2 or lower can I park the t-47 on top of it? At least for one round.

Pg 40 of the rrg

“A unit that has the speeder x keyword may end its movement on a piece of terrain that has a height equal to or less than x.”

So T-47 Speeder 2 can end its movement height equal to 2

Sorry didn’t answer the first part in the same message as this one could be fuzzy but this is my understanding. Your T-47 could end its compulsory move there as long as you continued to move it of the barricade as part of its next standard action

Pg 33


• While moving a mini along a path created by a movement tool, if the base of the mini is impeded by an object, that mini must stop its movement prematurely unless the mini can legally move through, over, or on top of the obstructing object.

pg 34

A repulsor vehicle mini can move through all types of units.
• A repulsor vehicle mini cannot reverse, climb, or clamber.
• While performing a standard move, a repulsor vehicle mini can move onto or over a piece of a terrain that has a height that is equal to or less than the height of the unit leader’s mini.
