Free Attack Question
« on: May 31, 2006, 01:01:04 PM »
Okay, the Dark Tusks and the Horned Ones both have free attacks on the charge.  The DT's have a damage 6 head butt, and the HO's have the ram attack/knockdown.  Do these models lose all actions if they 20 out on the free attack?  If the attack is free, it seems that it occurs no matter what happens, but I'd like to know how y'all play it.  Cheers.

That is the way I've always played it, as well.

I asked Talamini about this on the phone last night.  According to him, the model loses all remaining actions on a 20 from this attack, just as a 1 is a critical.  "Free Attack" could probably have been worded better like so much else in the rules, so we wouldn't even be discussing this.
