The rules state that a Bio-Giant has a 3" reach for purposes of CC. Does this apply to other SZ 6 DL creatures like the Behemoth?
If so, does that, effectively, give the Behemoth a 4" reach due to the Giant Azhogar?
If a model is in CC with a Bio-Giant, does it have to Move outside the reach to Breakaway from CC?
If a model is not in base to base with the Bio-Giant, but is within the Reach, can it be targeted without being considered to be firing into CC?
When moving into CC range (3" for Bio-Giant), is this considered a Charge, even though there is no Charge bonus?
-
Yes.
Yes.
no, just has to break away from base to base contact. However the Fugly doesn't have to move to attack it if it can't leave the reach range.
Yes.
No. Charges, and associated bonus', are only for when moving into base to base contact. Are you asking if he gets to attack ontop of the Move action?
-
Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Yes, I am.
If a BUFF hits with a CC weapon, are the models not considered to be in CC? According to the rules, as I read them, they are - the model with the polearm doesn't get the charge bonus, though.
-
for the "breaking away", if model x is 2 inches away from the Behemoth after the behemoth charged and swung his CC attack, does model X need to "break away" to get out of CC and shoot in RC, and if so, how far? 4"? or only say, 1/2"?
-
I've always played it such that the Reach CC attack comes at the end of a move attack. (which makes the P. Behemoth a monstrosity).
To Break from CC you only need to leave Base to Base contact.
It is possible for a Behemoth to be in CC with someone that is not in CC with the Behemoth. IE within the 4 inches of Azoghar range but only in PB until it makes a Charge.

Just to clarify for me please. The Behemoth can move and attack a model that is in his close combat range but not charged in the same action?
-
As I've played it, yes. Giving the Behemoth 8 (EIGHT!) inches of attack range with the Azoghar, which can sweep. Attacks Twice. Sweep once and handcannon once as secondary attack. Thanks dragon for the catch.
(four inches MV. FAQ'd +3 inches for CC range. +1 Inch for the Azoghar.)
-
Sweep Twice is'nt it sweep pnce and handcannon once as secondary attack?
-
Whoops! Hands got ahead of mind there. meant to say attacks twice -fixes-

So, even if I am not in BtB, I get 2ndary Attack with Behemoth??? Cool!
-
You get the Secondary Attack with the BFG he's carrying as his fists (Natural Attack) can't quite reach. I like to charge to three inches away, use the Azoghar for it's massive damage and instead of cleaving suckers in twain I sweep, knock the first one down and for the Secondary attack Lob him via Screeching Projectile. Not sure how Kosher it is, but it sure is demoralizing and fun to watch.

Under Screeching Projectile pg.79 if a model scores a wound on a size 2 or less he may forgo infliction of wound in order to knock target prone and stunned, then may be picked up and thrown at targets within 8 inches for the cost of 1 action. I would say you couldn't do this as a secondary attack. I could be wrong but that's my opinion.
-
The only weirdness I see is whether or not I can use a Sweep to stun for the Screeching Projectile. I have no problem with using a Secondary Attack (it is a completly seperate attack action after all) and the bugger is twenty feet tall and has four arms.

I've yet to do this: Have a squad of Zombies in front of the Behemoth (can you say, "ammo belt"? I knew you could) and lob the little buggers on the way in (they don't even need to be knocked prone first!).
