Move after veiling?

[Miek]

Hey people,

 

Can you move after veiling? The rule days "in your movement phase", so it's not necessarily over at that point. It also doesn't say anything to the contrary.

 

Does saying "set back up" is sufficient to imply that these models cannot move anymore? Seems a bit subtle to me...

 

Mind you, I'm pretty much convinced that the intent is that those units aren't allowed to move after veiling, I just find out weirdly cryptic. It's not reinforcement, disembarking, etc. I don't see anything in the brb that says "a unit can't move if it was set up in this phase".

 

Thanks!

 

Edit: Ah, a general FAQ confirmed they cannot move. Nevermind.

They can move before the veil, which is pretty neat. But yeah, no easy charges after the drop

[Miek]

Indeed. Someone pointed out to me that this was also clarified in the rare rules section of the BRB.

It is worth to point out that you cannot move after veil but a unit that didnt move and veil is not considered as having moved. It works quite well with some of our rules that require nit to move

[Miek]

That is significant, thank you!

I'm pretty sure it is stated in the rulebook or the relic that teleporting is considered as moved. Let me check it

[Miek]

I think angrom is right; per the rare rules (page 363 of the rulebook), the unit is considered as having moved only if it arrives as reinforcements - which isn't the case.

 

Obviously stuff like immovable phalanx and eternal guardians that clearly mention types of move will work after veiling (if the unit didn't move prior), but I guess there are other cases I'm missing where the criteria is more general (i.e.: has not moved). Or were those all removed / rephrased?
