Couple of rule clarifications.

[KLupton]

Heys guys. I have a couple of quick questions for someone to clarify for me regarding my Orcs and Goblins.

Are the Goblins riding on the Arachnarok spider subject to the 'Fear Elves' special rule like other Goblins? I cant see a answer in the army book for this. 'Fear Elves' isnt listed in the Arachnaroks speacial rules anywhere, so i assume it doesnt apply.

Also regarding Animosity. When a unit rolls a result where it must declare a charge against the closest enemy unit, if it is possible to do so, Does it roll to charge even if the unit is outside its maximum possible charge range? As that wouldnt be a possible charge.

These questions came up in my last game and would really appreciate help clearing these up.

Cheers for any help

1). No, Its doen't have the Fear Elves rule.

2) Do you mean the 6. We'll Show 'Em result or the 2-5. Squabble result? Both are in the text. You can't declare a impossiable charge. If they unit was 18" away, your units have 16" possible charge. So on a result of 6, the unit would act as normal. on a result of 2-5. you unit would squabble amongst each other and would not be about the Move, Shoot, or CAST.

1. As said above, it doesn't Fear Elves. It is listed as Immune to Psychology, and it also causes Terror, so not only do you not Fear Elves, but they Fear you! (Unless they cause Terror, but note that they will have to test for Terror, it does not get downgraded to Fear, because the Elves themselves do not have the Fear rule, it's the Goblins that have the rule). Hope that made sense!

2. As above, they can only declare a charge if the enemy unit is within M+12".

The Arachnarok spider is immune to psychology, so it will certainly not fear elves.
