McCabe-->Dismount

[Bumpasses]

I did not see this in another thread.

 

But I am confused here, when McCabe dismounts, his 30mm self comes into play with slow and unable to interact, but is he not also at 1/2 wounds since he was summoned?

Not unless Mounted McCabe's card says so. I don't have the rulebook to hand but I don't think that half wounds is specified in the General Rules for Summoning.

It is not. I played that way too for a long time. But it's a Nicodem rule.

He's summoned with full health. There is no general rule that says summoned creatures come at half health, most actions and abilities just deal damage to the newly summoned creatures. If the action or ability itself doesn't deal damage to the model (as in McCabe's case) they come in at full health.

Basically this. The only 2 restrictions to summoning are No Interactions and Slow. The majority of summons come in with a health restriction to prevent the summons from being too powerful. For example Nico's summons are at 50% but this is only because his action states that is the case. You should usually assume a model that is summoned comes in at 50% health unless the ability or action summoning it states otherwise.

You're contradicting yourself there, aren't you?

Also, always LoS, regardless of what the action says.

Woops! Typo! I meant comes in a full health! It's been a long day!

 

It should have said "assume a model comes in at full health"

Also I was referring to the summoned model itself which doesn't need LoS to itself before it can be summoned

I know. It's just that I like to remind people that LoS is actually a prerequisite in the Summoning rules.
