Lady Justice Charge

[Rautenfreund]

Hi Malifauxnists,

I'm wondering how the charger of LJ is executed. She needs no LOS. So this overrides the "Target a model within LoS" rule. But what about the "Move this model up to its Cg in a STRAIGHT LINE".

I'm wondering if Lady J. is able to charge moving other than in a straight line!? Maybe around a corner or so?

Thanks fit your reply

No. She doesn't need LoS, that's all. No further interpretation necessary.

 

She can charge around a corner to a certain degree, though. Due to her 2" melee range, she can declare a charge on a model behind a corner, provided it's within 2" of the corner, and then move straight towards that corner. As long as she ends her straight move within 2", she can charge.

Bear in mind you don't need to charge directly towards the model (eg you can charge off to the side), you just need to be engaged.

 

So, model is out of LOS from her intial position (eg around a 90 degree corner, 4" away), LJ can charge 4" or so into engagement range with the model that was out of sight but now isn't.

Thanks a lot for your answers. That's how I understood but my last opponent thought she could such crazy things.

Wishful thinking, sadly. She has to adhere to most of the rules, just not the LoS one.

 

And you're welcome.

That would be cool though. If she could charge like that.
