Brother Navaer Solaq Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 There is a GK ability that does something to units that is deep striking near the GK troops. I do not know the name of the rule. My question is this. If a unit has a locator beacon that prevents scatter would it still be affected by the GK's special ability rule regarding units deep striking? Thanks in advance.

Legatus Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 The Warp Quake psychic ability disables all special rules within 12" that would prevent deepstrike scatters, while deep striking unit slanding within 12" would automatically suffer a deep strike mishap. While it would be possible for a deep striking unit do land both withing range of a working teleport homer and within the warp quake area (the teleport homer is outside of teh warp quake area and thus not affected), this would then simply mean that the unit can be placed without scattering. It will still suffer the mishap due to warp quake. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233005-gk-question/#findComment-2803729 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Navaer Solaq Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Thanks for answering about teleport homers . I was referring to the locator beacon and not the teleport homer beacon. Unless Warp Quake affects both types of beacons..?? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233005-gk-question/#findComment-2803740 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thade Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Unless Warp Quake affects both types of beacons..?? Warp Quake affects all types of beacons. :mellow: As Legatus said, any device that would normally reduce or negate DS scatter is rendered useless when Warp Quake is activated within reach of it.

Legatus Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Warp quake affects specifically everything that would prevent Deep Strike scatter. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233005-gk-question/#findComment-2803778 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonaides Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Warp Quake affects Deep Strike - so yes, it will affect both types of beacon. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233005-gk-question/#findComment-2803783 Share on other sites More sharing options...
