Constriction

[Mycellanious]

The Razorspine Rattler has the Constriction ability: "Enemy models engaged by this model suffer a  to duels generated by the Disengage action. 

Does this ability apply when the Rattler takes the Disengage action?

I hadn't really thought about it before, but I see no reason it wouldn't apply to the Rattler disengaging.

Note you have to be engaging them with the rattler. So if you disengage from a 2" engagement range, you'll not get the bonus unless you're within 1 inch.

Constriction is poorly phrased, because technically the Disengage Action does not generate any duels - it generates another Action, and that action generates duels.

With that in mind, I think that the intent is that it effects both attack duels by by enemy models when one of your models Disengages, and resist duels made by enemy models that are Disengaging. Otherwise, it would say the specific duel affected, such as "resist duels made during a disengage action."

Engaged and Engaging are different rules-wise. A model can be engaged and not engaging and vice versa.

In this case Constriction is only applied to the models engaged by "this model" (a model isn't engaging himself), so this is only applied to enemy models; not to the Rattler.

I think he means if the Rattler disengages and the enemy makes an attack, does that attack get a minus.

Haha, I need to start reading the questions more carefuly.

In that case, yes the wording seems to work also for when the Rattler try to disengage.
