Obey and Focus

[MrDeathTrout]

While controlling an enemy model using Obey can you spend the controlled models focuses while they perform the action?

 

Assuming the answer is yes can you spend Focused even if you take an action that has no flips (e.g. taking a walk action)?  

 

It seems like the answer is yes to me, but wanted to get confirmation since I can see an argument against both of these.  

 

Obey: Target non-Leader model immediately performs a (1) Action chosen and controlled by this model's controller...

 

Focused +1: This model may remove this Condition when declaring an Action to gain a number of   to the Action's duel and damage flip equal to the value of the Focused Condition removed.

Do you think that Focus can be used on Terrifying checks Myyra? Seems a bit odd you can use it on a Walk but not on something that requires a (simple) duel as others have argued (this may be a separate thread).

You can use it when declaring an action. It gives a the Action's duel and damage flip. If the action require a duel or cause damage flip then it just doesn't do anything.

Terrifying isn't that Action's duel. It's just a duel you are required to take because of a separate rule that just happens to happen during the action.

Guess that's why Levi's ability to take wounds specifies all duels during the action.

You are.

 

Such a nice way to put it.

You are, with a sugarcoating and a cherry on top.

You are.

This kind of answers add nothing. A little explaination would be nice.

Now that's it.
