Charge action confusion

[ajay29]

Apologies in advance if this is an easily answered question, but I only have a small rulebook if anyone can give a page reference for that.

 

Came up in a game, opponent's Shenlong with Focus +4 charges something.

 

Opponent wants to know if you can do a (0) action (or indeed any action) inbetween the 2 attacks granted by the charge action.

 

I argued not, as the 2 attacks are a product of the charge being effectively ONE action.

 

He then said, OK so does my focus +4 apply to both attacks as it's effectively one action?

 

 

 

I'm pretty sure you CAN'T interupt the 2 attacks, and that the focus will only apply to the first hit, but if someone can (a) point out why and/or ( correct me if I'm wrong, that would be great!

 

Thanks in advance!

I think the focus would only affect the first strike. And you are correct, you can't interrupt the 2 attacks.

Thank you kindly!

I'm presuming the focus thing is because it only applies focus benefits to an "action", which the charge consists of 2 of, correct?

It is the first question of the FAQ.

I am not 100% on the focus but I believe it gives you the + flips onto your next flip basically and that's it, not on the two flips that is in the charge. Hopefully someone will clarify this.
