So over in the Neverborn faction forum a question came up about Horror Duels, specifically the immunity to them. I thought I'd ask it over here, since the RAW seems to leave room for any model that forces a horror duel to be much weaker than I previously thought.
In this case, we'll use the Widow Weaver. The Widow Weaver has Terrifying, but also has an attack action which can force the target to make a Horror Duel. The question is: If the Widow Weaver attacks a target and it successfully makes the Horror Duel, does that model become immune to all Horror Duels the result from the Widow Weaver until the End Phase? Meaning a second successful attack wouldn't require a Horror Duel at all since it was immune, and the model could move near or attack Widow Weaver without making a Terrifying check?
The small rulebook rule on Horror Duels does say Horror Duels, so RAW seems to imply that a second attack by Widow Weaver would not force a Horror Duel. But the section seems clearly written for Terrifying checks, and even mentions the model can continue activation without being affected by Terrifying.
