Pushes A push is an effect that moves a model in a straight line, such as an explosive force shoving a model back, or a model being thrown by a larger friend. Talents that cause a push (instead of a move) will state that the effect is a push. A push is not a normal move, and it does not count as a “move” for rules purposes. Pushes are not affected by severe terrain. (page 46) Flight: This model is immune to falling damage and may ignore any terrain or models while moving. Incorporeal: This model ignores, and is ignored by, other models and terrain during any movement or push. Reduce all damage this model suffers from Sh and Ml Attack Actions by half. Note the difference between Flight and incorporeal that I've put in bold. A model doesn't "fly" during a push, but a push can go through severe terrain, so the actual answer is they might stop if they hit an impassable bit of terrain, but, if it doesn't contain that trait , they will still move 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Page 43 or book 1. Looks like a push stops at any terrain with height. Only if it's impassable. Forests are typically ht 5 but they don't stop models from moving or pushing into them. You can define walls as severe terrain with ht 1 but then they don't stop pushes. The most common definition here is them being ht 1, impassable, climbable in which case they stop pushes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 NulSec Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 I think the push only ends if it comes into contact with impassable terrain (edit: or another model) - otherwise the push ignores it. You can push through a forest, but not a building. I also don't think flight affects pushes as pushes are not considered moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
