Troll minion backswing

[pranger 0]

Hi there, I started a campaign with a group of friends last saturday and we started arguing over the backswing ability. Some said that after attacking one hero with the troll minion, the backswing ability could target all heroes adjacent to the troll. I think that unless you use the troll master ability " sweep", backswing could not target more than one hero. Minion backswing = hero affected by previous attack. Master backswing = all heroes affected by previous attack if sweep was used.  Am I right? 

 

Thanks,  Pat

Backswing: Use immediately after performing an attack to chose any number of figures affected by that attack. Each of those figures tests Awareness. If none of the figure pass, each chosen figure suffers 2 Heart and is Stunned.

Regular minion Troll has no ability to attack more then 1 figure (overlord cards or other such interactions aside), ability text is clear, only heroes affected can then be targeted by backswing.

 

You are correct

That said, if another interaction allowed the troll to target multiple heroes with its attack, backswing would be applicable.
