Lenny & Conditions

[cengler]

Lenny's 'Numbskull' ability is worded "This model is immune to all Conditions."

 

Does that mean that he can never take on a condition or does it mean that he does not suffer the effects of conditions?

 

For example, if Lenny was the target of an attack that gives the target "Burning 2" does Lenny just shrug off the Burning entirely (i.e. he is never considered to have been "Burning") or is he considered a "Burning" model but just never takes damage from it?

[Adran]

He can never get a condition.

In the attack gives Burning +2, he is immune to the conditon so doesn't get burning, and so Sonnia can't ignore line of Sight to target him, because he isn't burning

[PraetorDragoon]

Immune to conditons means that you can never get conditions. He never gets the Burning+2.

 

He is literaly to dumb to be on fire.

[Therril_83]

Rules manual, pg36

A model immune to a Condition can never receive the Condition. If

an Attack (or other source) causes damage and applies a Condition to

a model, the model still suffers the damage, but it would not gain the

Condition if it is immune. If a model gains immunity to a Condition

while it has the Condition, it immediately removes the Condition.

 

I think it's pretty clear by reading that. Don't know the page number of the big book, but the text should be the same.

Thanks, all, for the clarification, particularly the rules guide reference.

[AoS]

If Lenny is immune to all conditions he cant take any condicion. So he cant take "Burning x".

[asrian]

Be aware there are ways to, temporarily, remove his immunity. Carrion Effigy and Pandora's The Box Opens upgrade come to mind.

[rgarbonzo]

Only the Carrion Effigy will work, Pandora's trigger applies a condition that Lenny can't have.

[asrian]

Ahh. TY. At work so was going by memory and thought she could remove that one.
