Burying and "End of Activation" Effects

[magicpockets]

This is buried (see what I did there) in a couple of threads so hope posting it here will attract an answer. If a model has an effect on it which has an "at the end of your activation" condition, does that condition apply if the model bury's itself before the end of it's activation?

Examples would include Bette affected by Painkillers (from a Nurse) and SS Miner affected by Overdrive.

It has been ruled that a model's activation ends when it is buried, but the sticking point seems to be do you resolve the (1) action to bury the model and then end it's activation (in which case effects wouldn't resolve) or do you end it's activation and then resolve the (1) action (which would mean you applied effects).

A RM would be helpful on this if there's one free?

No I'm not... you saw nothing.

I saw that you had posted but you deleted it before I could get on the thread

I see you're searching right now so hope you have better luck than me, couldn't find any sort of precedent for this

Overall I believe that it works like this

• the model gets buried
  
• as the activating model is no longer in play the activation ends.
  

As such the model is not in play when the activation end.

Thanks for taking the time to do that Alex.
