Placing Hazardous Terrains Markers and Moving Engaged

[Marcioasilva06]

We had this questions during yesterday´s game:

 

1 - When Kaeris triggers her Raging Inferno for the Conflagration action, she may drop a 50mm Pyre Marker that acts as a Blast Marker for the action. Models touched by the marker suffers only the damage from the conflagration or also the burning + injured from the pyre marker?

more generally, when a pyre marker is placed touching or under a model, does the model suffer it´s effects, or only when it activates. It´s clear to me that if the marker is moved everything it touches suffer the effects, but in this case it was placed/dropped without moving. 

 

 

2 - Can a model use the walk action to walk around a model, considering it does not leave the engagement range? I thought it couldn´t, but did not find it in the rules.

 

Thanks!

Like it says in the “Drop and Create” rules, dropping the marker “is not considered moving the Marker.

So Drop a Pyre Marker overlapping a model, that model won’t suffer the effects of that marker until the model takes an action, the model moves, or the marker moves.  Again, when the marker is first dropped is considered considered moving the marker, so that isn’t good enough to cause the model to suffer the effects.

“This move cannot be used to leave an enemy model’s engagement range” (the restriction specified in Walk) doesn’t prevent the model moving around all it wants as long as it doesn’t leave an enemy model’s engagement range.  If someone wants to do laps around their lone engaging enemy model, they can.

Edit:  See also the green box on page 58 of the rulebook, page 22 of the rules PDF where it says that you can use Walk to get away but you can use it to move around an enemy when you’re engaged.
