It’s not an Obey where it assumes control. Before “towards” was changed then it had to move directly towards the center point of the model. Now that’s not true. It’s just an odd thing now. Although I guess if they wanted the opponent to move it then it would say, “Opponent must …”. Thanks for the response. Much appreciated.

0 Adran Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 For lure its certainly the attacking model. For being it, which us worded differently I think it might be the target that controls the move. EDIT - Alcathous has actually read the rules. Since the example used in the rules of Enemy controlled is the same wording as Bring it, then I think its safe to assume Bring it is controlled by the attacking model 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 solkan Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 Eh, Bring It's always been a "Do you feel lucky, punk?" type attack anyway. "Target moves its Mv +2" towards this model" is specifying a move controlled by the target's controller (its owner). It's the same difference expressed in things like Chain Gang: Quote Move the target up to 3". Then, this model may move up to 3", which must end within 3" of the target." (the model performing the action controls both) or the difference between "push ____" (the person resolving the effect chooses) and "______ pushes" (whoever has control of _____ chooses) when there are options left unspecified.

I think that the default is the attack controls things done during its action resolution, but if it creates a new action then the control will revert to the defending model for that action unless otherwise stated. ( And this doesn't contradict FAQ question 1 as that refers to controlling actions generating new actions). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Regelridderen Posted June 4, 2021 Report Share Posted June 4, 2021 Difference between Obey and Bring it! is: Obey specifies that the action is chosen and controlled by this model, whereas Bring it! specifies the target to move, make an attack targeting the Bring it!-model if able.

You've managed to read the example incorrectly. Try again, keeping in mind that the section is on the meaning of enemy and friend: Quote Certain Actions and Abilities allow a player to control a model in an enemy’s Crew. When this happens, the controlling player makes all decisions for the model, including flipping cards, Cheating Fate, declaring Actions, and so on. Example: A model has an Action that reads “Target Pushes 3" toward the nearest other enemy model.” It successfully uses this Action on the opponent’s model, so when resolving, the opponent’s model Pushes 3" toward the nearest other model controlled by that opponent. The sentence Quote “Target Pushes 3" toward the nearest other enemy model. becomes Quote “Target Pushes 3" toward the nearest other other model [controlled by that opponent] (enemy). It is NOT saying anything about who is dictating the choices in the push. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Sorry to hijack the thread with a different ability.) That's part of how you know the conclusion is wrong. The acting model does not dictate where the marker is placed for Drop It, the target does.

Question
Urlock Gaur
Probably a dumb question but who controls the movement of a model that has been targeted by”Lure” or “Bring It”? New rules on “towards” now make it not something that either player could do and come up with the same result. Thank you.
