mountainnomad Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 I was recently using Sensei Yu for the first time. I noticed that the Stones on the River action on the Low River Style upgrade is described as an Ml action with a 6 inch range. Surely this is supposed to be a casting action. I've searched and can't find any other mention of it. Do I have an old version of the card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jugan0ght Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 I don't have my cards on me but i just checked the Crossroads book (I have a digital copy) and that also shows as a MI action so I don't think it is your card more likely mistyped. Good spot though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adran Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 There is nothing to stop tactical actions from using the Ml stat. Fuhatsu uses Ml for his madman with a gun action. Making it a Ml action rather than a Ca action means that Malifaux child can't copy it, and things like disrupt magic don't make it harder to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainnomad Posted March 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 It also means that most models won't be able to interact within 6 inches. Sensei Yu could still interact at the cost of a focus though so I wouldn't be objecting if this is a melee action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, that would be actions that prevent that, not MI actions *edit for clarity - although it's an MI attack, because it doesn't have , it doesn't have an engagement range, and thus doesn't prevent anyone interacting, or moving away from Shen or Yu* 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eclipse Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 The action also benefits from the Promises upgrade on a Black Sheep model (or tossed on someone else) - a +flip since it's an upgrade AND a Ml action. At least if I remember the wording correct. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainnomad Posted March 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 I just reread the engagement rules and this makes more sense now and has less impact than I had initially thought. Thanks for the clarification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skitt_Happens Posted March 18, 2016 Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 What it does mean though, is that because of the "Brutal" ability, to remove a condition Yu must first add a condition. This is however not true of the trigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
