ShinyRhino Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 If a Commissar Lord is attached to an IG unit in melee, and refuses a challenge, can the squad still benefit from his Aura of Discipline, or is the rule for declining a challenge sufficient to deny ALL methods of the unit gaining the Lord's Ld value?

muadib02 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 The challenge rules do not appear to prevent things like leaderhsip bubbles/rites of battle/etc from working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinyRhino Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 The challenge rules do not appear to prevent things like leaderhsip bubbles/rites of battle/etc from working. Right, but the question at ahnd is whether the bubble can be used on the unit to which the Lord is attached after he has declined a challenge, since that disallows the remainder of his unit form using his Ld value for any tests. Declining a challenge, per RAW, would not deactivate the bubble for units to which he is NOT attached, but does it still work as a bubble for the unit to which he is attached, since it would normally be redundant.

maturin Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I don't think the unit would benefit, as the Lord Commissar's rule states that the unit "may use his leadership of 10...", not that they become LD10. So if the unit can't use his leadership after he's refused a challenge...then the bubble doesn't apply. That's perfectly fluffy, really! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
