yasarkasaba Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Hi guys This weekend we prepared a big convention in my hometown. I enjoy my first Apocalypse match via 80K points. On my table I played with Crimson fists against both Necron and Dark Eldar. Everythink was ok until a unit of some long dead guys arrived from the reserves. They came, deathmarked my 10 sternguard and i think some kind of HQ wiith a staff like think killed my guys with a flame template. It was ap1 and wounds on 2. It did not take my attention at that time because we were all talking and laughing but after the game i remember that these guys arrived from reserves but from the left of my opponents table side. But i think the reserves must come from the table edge unless they have outflank abiility. I dont know if any unit like that power on Necrons can outflank me or i know that rule correct. Thanks already for your responses. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/273233-necron-deathmark-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglez Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I do belive that deathmarks can deepstrike, so maybe they did that? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/273233-necron-deathmark-question/#findComment-3335071 Share on other sites More sharing options...
yasarkasaba Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Maybe but if they deep strike they must roll a scatter dice unless there is special rule says otherwise. I think you are correct about deepstrike and my opponents cheated a little in there by not rolling a scatter dice and saying they came from reserves.

Leonaides Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 There are some units that don't have to roll scatter dice, Dante and belial spring to mind, or, as an apoc game, were they using a homing beacon or something?

dswanick Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 "Ethereal Interception: Immediatley after an enemy unit arrives from reserve, any Deathmark units in Deep Strike reserve that have not yet entered play can themselves choose to enter play via Deep Strike, usually in the enemy turn. Any Deathmark units that choose not to enter play in this fashion make reserve rolls as normal in subsequent turns.", C:N, pg.36 So, yes, they Deep Strike and can enter play anywhere they choose. They also should have rolled for scatter, unless under some other special rule which overrode it.

Morollan Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Sounds like someone was being careless or, shall we say, generous with their rules interpretations.

yasarkasaba Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Sounds like someone was being careless or, shall we say, generous with their rules interpretations. Agreed. I generally choose to think otherwise but that guy always abuses or at least tries to bend the rules so he did not roll the scatter dice, came near me and killed my sterns+pedro At least we won There are some units that don't have to roll scatter dice, Dante and belial spring to mind, or, as an apoc game, were they using a homing beacon or something? No homing beacons. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/273233-necron-deathmark-question/#findComment-3335226 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkGuard Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 As a rule of thumb, if you know a guy normally bends the rules, then challenge them on everything you think is a little odd. If they aren't playing by the rules, they will be within time.

CitadelArmyGuy Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 If it was Apocalypse then they probably used the 'Flank March' strategic asset. It allows reserves to arrive using any table edge.
