- 1. When you use the card 'teleport', are you allowed to
- both move the model AND face it in any direction on the
- spot it arrived?
-
- I am interested in the response to this, I have not yet played a
- Genestealer scenario.

- 2. Suppose a blip is hunching behind a corner, on the
- square closest to the board section a marine flamer is in
- If the marine moves to get a LOS and to fire the flamer
- at the section containing the blip. When the blip is
- converted, is it allowed to place a genestealer on
- the board section which the marine is standing? That
- means that he should have seen the closest stealer
- BEFORE he saw the blip!
-
-
- 1. Marine turn 2. Marine moves...

- This means that the marine would be unable to flame
- or cast a psycic section effect on the stealer section!
-
-
- We play that this is totally legal. There are no rules forbidding it.
- Remember Genestealers are sneaky bastards that can hide in corners and
- climb walls and ceilings. The only thing a blip tells a Marine is
- that the sensorium gives a vague idea of the position of Genestealer
- groups. This is how we judge this situation.
-
-
- We decided to say that this particular conversion is NOT
- possible, and that any excess stealers were lost (don't
- worry, I played stealer and nailed him anyway :-). Was
- this right, according to normal and house rules?
