So the Slop Hauler's "Feed The Piggies" action. Tactical action, 3" pulse, needs a 4 of any suit. "Friendly Pigs within range Heal 1/2/3. Other friendly non-Pig models within range Heal 1." The action has a crow trigger, "Hungry Pigs," which must be declared if able.
"Immediately, push any number of friendly Pigs within 9"(pulse) up to 6" towards this model."
Forgive me if I'm missing something obvious, but why is this trigger mandatory? If the wording on Hungry Pigs was different I could see how it'd be bad to flip an unlucky crow and be forced to cheat or else drag several of my Pigs out of position. But the way it's worded now seems pretty clear—I can choose any number of Pigs or inches, so couldn't I choose to affect 0 friendly Pigs? Couldn't I choose to push those Pigs 0 inches?
What am I missing here? Why is the trigger mandatory to declare if the consequences are completely within my power to avoid? Have I been breaking any rules by simply choosing 0 and breezing past this trigger whenever I'm forced to declare it but don't want to use its effects?
