Withdrawing

Post by Bragallot » Fri Dec 10, 2010 11:14 am

If two or more minifigs are fighting 1 other and one of the two withdraws, do the same rules for withdrawing apply as when it had just been one minifig fighting another?

No, the withdrawing minifig and his whole team spontaneously combust out of shame.
Often, literally, a pillow fight but may include similar situations like volleyball, particularly when wardrobe is skimpy and the action is bouncy.

Yes. He gets a full set of Counters for that player's turn, and he can use them however he wants - either to take a swing at the Withdrawing figure, or to save them for the one still in combat.

I am making one important change for the 2010 rules, which I haven't uploaded yet - Withdrawing no longer takes an Action. So a minifig will be able to Withdraw, take his lumps from however many Counters he draws as a result, and then run out and do something else.

This makes sense, that way he gets punished once and is still allowed to do what he took the risk for making it hopefully worth doing. I grumbled a bit about the way things were but I like it much better now.

Why do we need rules for withdrawing? It's a path that will end with rules for peace treaties and disarmament agreements.

Sometimes you have to pull out. Unless you want babies.

This situation came up in one of our last games. A squad of 4 includes a leader and that squad is currently in CC with an enemy hero. If at least one squad member remains in CC with the hero, can the rest of the squad "split" and go elsewhere? More importantly, if they do, will/can they avoid counters from the Hero for technically withdrawing?

What Stubby said - the enemy Hero can choose to either use his Counters to attack one of the Withdrawing figs, or save it for the one he's still in combat with.

I still think that you should only withdraw when you don't want babys OR If the enermy is dead... Those two images really REALLY shouldn't go together... Could somebody pass the brain bleach?

If the enemy is dead then you don't have to worry about babies.

Only after you've crushed them and seen them driven before you...
