Rules Issues

[ParckTheSlayer 0]

Hi Everyone! I'm new on the forum.

Me and my friends we are playing Descent and we have some problems can you help us?

 

1) Use fatigue to gain 1 MP and using it to move me near a monster allow me to perform 2 attacks?

2) Can i use " Catch up " ( i don't know how it's called in the english version ) If there's no clair space between me and the attackers?

3) Can i use ability like the ones of the knight to move next to a monster who's near or defending a " threaten like heroes " ( Like a guard) ?

4) Are monsters who occupy more spaces able to " steal "movement? ( Can a big monster  move up to 3 spaces and  " Expand " Himself on the 4th? )

 

Sorry for my english, hope you can help me!

1) Yes. 

 

2) I Honestly don't know which skill you are talking about, and I don't really understand the question, sorry.

Maybe you could use thi website to find the right skill and link it to us so we can help you :

3) Wut ?

 

4) Yes, that's why you should really pay attention to big monsters, they can move faster than they seem. 

 

Where are you from ? Maybe some of us can answer you in your native language if you tell us from which country you are. Because it's not easy to understand all of your questions

I'm italian! 

2) I found that the ability in english is called " Reach " ! How it works? Can i use it without clear spaces?

3) I mean : " Can i use the ability " Defend " or " Advance " of the knight with guards or other " treated like heroes " ? "

Thank you for the answers!

I've seen that the translate from English to Italian of the game is pretty sh*tty, so " treated like heroes " are actually " Miniature Heroes ".

P.s: Sorry, i've writed Threated! LOL

3) Oh, you mean use your Knights skills (like Oath of Honor or Defend ) on a to defend non player characters like peasants or guards ?

 

It depends : if the quest says that the characters are considered as heroes, yes you can. If the quest doesn't says that, no you can't. Someone will certainly explain it better than me anyway

 

 

2) I still don't understand what are you asking in this question

 

 

Sorry, I can't help you in your native language because I don't speak any word of Italian (I'm French ), but maybe someone will be able to speak it !

2) I mean: " If i have reach, can i attack a monster if there is another miniature between me and him or it needs Vision like ranged attacks? "

Thank you!

1 Yes.

2 No. You need line of sight to attack with "Reach".

3 Yes. Figures "treated like a hero" are heroes for the purpose of hero skills, attacks, and overlord cards. They are NOT heroes when it comes to quest rules.

4 Yes, but a large monster can only expand when it interrupting or ending its movement, and if it is interrupting to attack, its 1 space must be close enough to attack.

4 So for example: An Ettin use 2 move action, can he use the 3 MP expand and than move again for 3?

Thank you for the answers!

If the Ettin uses both of his move actions at once, he can not interrupt them unless you as a overlord give the Ettin an additional action via overlord card or certain abilities. The Ettin can however declare a move action, move his 3 spaces, expand and declare another move action and expand again.

The Ettin can however declare a move action, move his 3 spaces, expand and declare another move action and expand again. 

 

To make that clearer: It seems the same as just moving 7 spaces and then expand BUT you have to be ABLE TO END YOUR MOVE AND EXPAND after the first three points of movement, which crafty heroes won't let you do...

If the Ettin uses both of his move actions at once, he can not interrupt them unless you as a overlord give the Ettin an additional action via overlord+ card or certain abilities. The Ettin can however declare a move action, move his 3 spaces, expand and declare another move action and expand again.

Right. For example, this is valid:

 

Ettin declares move action, shrinks.

Etiin moves 2 spaces (still shrunk).

Ettin interrupts to declare another move action (expands)

Ettin shrinks to another one of his spaces, and moves his 4 remaining MP (still shrunk)

Ettin expands.

 

All total, without additional OL cards, the Ettin has moved the front of his figure  8 spaces using 6 MP.
