'''Answers from Discord''' — community rules clarifications from the official ''Eldfall Chronicles'' Discord.
Answers by '''meksmaks''' (Community Manager / Rules Expert) and '''bubalosoldier''' (Frostpeak Publishing), Feb–Jun 2026.


''These are community clarifications, not official errata. Always check the latest rulebook first.''
Rules clarifications collected from the '''#rule-questions-skirmish''' channel of the official Eldfall Chronicles Discord (July 2025 – July 2026). Terms with wiki articles are linked.


__TOC__
:''Legend:'' 🟢 '''Official / team''' (designer <code>bubalosoldier</code>, staff <code>meksmaks</code>) · 🔵 '''Community''' (experienced players). Informal answers — the rulebook and official FAQ/Errata are the final authority.

== [[Line of Sight|Line of Sight]] ==
=== Turn structure & initiative ===


<section begin="Line_of_Sight" />
'''Q:''' If a player wins initiative and picks turn order, must they say who goes first immediately, or after deployment?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 Immediately. The initiative winner chooses either who goes first, or the table side + deployment mode; the other player then decides the remaining choice. Deployment order follows turn order (first player deploys first), so it can't be deferred.


'''Q:''' How many lines do you need to draw to establish Line of Sight?
=== Movement & Flicker ===


'''A (meksmaks, Jun 24, 2026):''' You only need to draw 1 line to be considered as having LoS. The player commanding the attacking model chooses which line to draw. If you can also draw a line that passes through terrain/obstruction, apply its Cover effect accordingly.
'''Q:''' What counts as a "Movement" for [[Flicker]]?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 A Movement is Walk, Dash, Jump or Climb (everything in the Movement Step; even Idle is a Movement). [[Flicker]] works on those. Repositioning from [[Dodge]], Follow-up, Knockback or [[Hit and Retreat]] is a ''move'', not a Movement, so it can't trigger Flicker.


----
'''Q:''' Can [[Flicker]] pass through terrain taller/wider than the model?<br>
 
'''A:''' 🟢 Yes — Flicker moves in any direction, ignoring obstacles, as long as the model ends in a legal position (e.g. through a wall to end behind an enemy, if within range).
'''Q:''' Can a model use another model (friend or foe) as Cover?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Jun 24, 2026):''' Models can block off LoS to one another, but they do not provide Cover per se. The Cover section begins with 'a piece of scenery' — Cover requires terrain, not models.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' If a model's Hitbox is only partially visible, does it have Cover?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Jun 24, 2026):''' If any player can draw a line between attacker and target that passes through terrain (wider and taller than the target) and the target is within 1" of that terrain, the target has Heavy Cover.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Which models cannot benefit from Cover at all?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Jun 24, 2026):''' Models larger than Size: Large cannot get Cover.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Does Cover apply if some LoS lines are clear and others pass through terrain?
 
'''A (deokel, Jun 24, 2026):''' You only need one unobstructed line to establish LoS. But if any player can simultaneously draw a line through terrain, Cover applies — even if another line is unobstructed. The attacking player chooses the LoS line; Cover is assessed separately from any line that passes through relevant terrain.
 
----
<section end="Line_of_Sight" />
 
== [[Cover|Cover]] ==
 
<section begin="Cover" />
 
'''Q:''' Do Cover and Haze Bombs stack?
 
'''A (meksmaks, May 17, 2026):''' Yes — Cover and Haze Bombs stack.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' If the Protector steps in front of an attack, do Cover modifiers use the Protector's position or the original target's?
 
'''A (deokel, May 10, 2026):''' All modifiers — including Cover — apply based on the Protector's actual position. Smart positioning of the Protector is rewarded by the rules.
 
----
<section end="Cover" />


== [[Haze Bombs|Haze Bombs]] ==
'''Q:''' Can a model change its facing after being hit?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 Yes — it may turn / adjust line of sight after being hit (rulebook p. 22).


<section begin="Haze_Bombs" />
=== Combat, confrontation & attacks ===


'''Q:''' Do the modifiers from Haze and Cover stack with each other?
'''Q:''' [[Sweep]] vs a model in confrontation, while a second model within reach [[Dodge|dodges]] successfully and the attacker wins — does the dodging model get hit?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 The dodging model avoids the hit because its Dodge succeeded — unless the hit was a Critical.


'''A (meksmaks, May 17, 2026):''' Yes, they stack.
'''Q:''' How does the [[Sweep]] trait work?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Sweep is a trait, not a skill. For every successful attack, every model in the 360° arc within the weapon's range that hasn't dodged takes a hit.


----
'''Q:''' What happens when both models roll the same value on a [[Confrontation]] roll?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Nothing — the attacks neutralise each other.


'''Q:''' Can Haze Bombs be used in Reaction to target friendly models?
'''Q:''' Does a high [[Toughness]] make 20 a critical on the damage roll? Does Armour act as a modifier?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 No. Toughness has no crit value — you never use it for the Attack Roll, and only Attack Rolls can crit. [[Fencing]] affects OFF/DEF/ACC/INT/M, not T. A Power of Attack above 20 isn't a crit; it's just auto-damage against models whose Armour is below the final PW.


'''A (meksmaks, Mar 15, 2026):''' Yes — in Reaction it becomes an Assist. You can target your own models within range, but they must end up fully under the template.
'''Q:''' Is there such a thing as a critical [[Dodge]] roll?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 No. A Dodge only succeeds or fails; rolling a 1 is the same as rolling a 16, and a 1 always succeeds.


----
'''Q:''' In what order do modifiers apply, and can an attribute reach 0?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Additions/subtractions first, then halving/doubling (halving rounds up). A stat won't reach 0 by halving alone — once [[Agility]] is 1, halving still returns 1.


'''Q:''' Does placing a Haze Bomb template require a successful ACC roll?
'''Q:''' Does [[Poisoned|Poison]] reduce base [[Toughness]] or the final value?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 It applies to Toughness itself (base value). Example: T8, Poisoned (−6) and Crippled (halved) → (8 − 6) ÷ 2 = 1.


'''A (meksmaks, Mar 15, 2026):''' Yes. In the Active Role it is a Targetless action, but it is still an Attack/Assist requiring an ACC roll (plus any Reroll).
'''Q:''' Do critical hits apply to ranged attacks?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Yes — crits apply to ranged attacks and to spells, not just melee.


----
'''Q:''' Does [[Hit and Retreat]] give two movements plus an attack, and can its [[Sweep]] hit models in the rear arc?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 Yes. Hit and Retreat cancels the [[Engaged]] state; the Sweep then hits every model within the weapon's reach, including the rear arc.


<section end="Haze_Bombs" />
'''Q:''' An enemy moves into base-to-base in my rear arc (no LoS, no [[Vigilance]]) — can I attack back?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 No — you can only [[Dodge]]. Engagement is applied at the Resolution step, so without LoS and without an [[Engaged]] state you can't declare an attack in reaction.


== [[Modifiers|Modifiers]] ==
'''Q:''' Is [[Agility]] penalised when dodging without LoS / from the rear arc?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 Yes — it is halved, but only in Reaction. You may Dodge in the Active role without penalty even without LoS.


<section begin="Modifiers" />
'''Q:''' Several of my models react with attacks against one active enemy — how does the confrontation work?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 Only one reacting model resolves a [[Confrontation]] with the active model (the one striking it simultaneously). The others perform their attacks normally and the target can't respond to those — except it may try to Dodge everything.


'''Q:''' What does 'unmodified STK 1' mean — can it be boosted by other effects?
'''Q:''' What does [[Defensive Stance]] do?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 It defaults the model's base STK (as printed on the weapon) to 1 in the Active phase, raising reactive Strike in exchange. It has nothing to do with [[Sentinel]].


'''A (meksmaks, May 06–17, 2026):''' To perform an unmodified STK 1 means you cannot modify the STK value at all. In the 1.6 ruleset, hard caps on STK — such as those from Crouched, Dash, or Flying — are intended to be unmodifiable.
=== Ranged attacks & engagement ===


----
'''Q:''' If A and B are [[Engaged]], can A make a ranged attack against C in reaction?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 No — the Engaged state locks all ranged attacks.


<section end="Modifiers" />
'''Q:''' When can a ranged attack be declared in reaction?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Whenever the activating model is within the weapon's reach (ranged weapon or spell) and in LoS — and as an attack of opportunity if it leaves. (p. 43 Note 2: if the enemy would end within its own melee range, a confrontation happens instead.)


== [[Stealth|Stealth]] ==
'''Q:''' How does measuring work in Standard mode?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 You may measure any time (but not while moving), within your [[Awareness]], and measure your move when you declare a [[Movement]]. You must declare the Movement before you gain the distance you can pre-measure with — high-SPD/flying models can't pre-measure a full run without declaring it.


<section begin="Stealth" />
=== Templates & area of effect ===


'''Q:''' Can you use Attack of Opportunity against a Stealth model that begins its activation outside your LoS?
'''Q:''' [[War Darts]] / any AoE hitting several models — one damage roll or one per model?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 One roll to hit, then a separate damage roll for each affected model.


'''A (meksmaks, Feb 02, 2026):''' You need LoS to target — Stealth I voids even Clairvoyance. With no LoS, no Reaction is possible. If you gain LoS during movement: Dodge is always possible; Attack of Opportunity requires both LoS and RCH met simultaneously during the Movement Step; a normal reactive Attack requires LoS to declare and RCH + LoS met during Resolution.
'''Q:''' Where can an AoE circle (e.g. Fireball) be placed relative to LoS?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 You only need the template to fully cover the target point you select, and that point must be in LoS; there's no rule on the point's size. (Cover between the caster and the blast centre is taken into account.)


----
'''Q:''' Can a model whose base is larger than the template (e.g. a [[Colossus, Tier IV|Colossus]] vs a small circular/spray) be affected, given the target must be "fully covered"?<br>
'''A:''' ⚠️ Unresolved in-channel — no definitive ruling was given. Flagged for the FAQ / designers.


'''Q:''' Does a Shrouded model immediately reveal when it declares an Attack?
=== States & conditions ===


'''A (meksmaks / Dockel, Mar 19, 2026):''' Yes — when a Shrouded model declares an Attack, it reveals itself instantly. Exception: if the target has Vigilance, the Vigilant model can still declare a Reaction.
'''Q:''' When does [[Crouched]] from [[Knockdown]] take effect, and what does it do?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 Applied at the end of the Resolution step. It doesn't immediately benefit the attacker, but a Dodge reaction in that same sequence won't cancel it either. A model activating while Crouched must still stand up in its Movement phase, leaving a window for an attack of opportunity while still Crouched. While Crouched: halved ARM, no Engagement range, fixed STK 1, drops a Rider from a Mount, vulnerable to being "daggered down."


----
'''Q:''' Does [[Crouched]] interact with STK-boosting abilities?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Yes — it fixes STK at 1, negating abilities that would raise Strike ([[Sentinel]], [[Fencing]] III, [[Assassination]] III, Armsmaster, etc.).


'''Q:''' Does Perceive only work within Awareness range?
'''Q:''' What does the [[Weakened]] state do, and how is it different from [[Crippled]]?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Weakened halves [[Toughness]]; Crippled halves [[Awareness]]. They are separate states.


'''A (meksmaks, Mar 19, 2026):''' Yes — Perceive only works within the model's Awareness.
'''Q:''' Does a trait like [[Inspiring]] stay active while a model is [[Incapacitated]]?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Yes — only the [[Dead]] state cancels traits and skills; Incapacitation doesn't remove them, and Awareness isn't modified by being Incapacitated.


----
'''Q:''' If an attack Hits but deals no damage, are on-hit and on-damage effects applied?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 It depends on the trigger: on-hit effects (e.g. [[Stagger]], [[Knockdown]]) apply on the hit; on-damage effects (e.g. Bleed) apply only on a wound. Either way the states come online at the end of the Activation Sequence.


'''Q:''' When a Shrouded model is Perceived, does it reveal at Declaration or only at Resolution?
=== Reacting to hidden models ===


'''A (deokel, Mar 19, 2026):''' Perceive resolves at the Resolution Step — the Shrouded model doesn't reveal at Declaration. If the Shrouded model then declares an Attack before Resolution, it reveals itself at that point. Perceive only works within the Perceiving model's Awareness.
'''Q:''' Can targetless spells be used in reaction, and can you react to a [[Shrouded]] model without Foresight?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Targetless spells can't be used in reaction. You can react to a Shrouded model via [[Dodge]] or [[Perceive]] if you can see its token; [[Perceive]] requires it within your [[Awareness]]. Against [[Stealth]] I with no LoS you can't react unless you have [[Vigilance]] (360° LoS); even Clairvoyant doesn't beat Stealth.


----
=== Spells & magic ===
<section end="Stealth" />


== [[Crouched|Crouched]] ==
'''Q:''' Does having an [[Affinity]] let a model cast spells?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 No — casting needs both an [[Affinity]] and a [[Spellcraft]]. Affinity on its own is usually a vulnerability (and can deny certain interactions).


<section begin="Crouched" />
'''Q:''' How does a [[Mystic]]'s casting stat work?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 A Mystic uses Morale (M) to cast the spell only — not for damage (damage still uses the normal value, e.g. INT).


'''Q:''' How can a model willingly enter the Crouched state other than by declaring Dodge?
'''Q:''' Are earlier [[Enchanting|Enchantment]] effects removed when I cast another enchantment on a different model?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 No — enchantment effects persist and are removed at the start of the caster's next Strategic Phase (unless stated otherwise).


'''A (meksmaks, Mar 07, 2026):''' A model may also enter or cancel the Crouched state at the start or end of its Movement Step during its own Activation (Rulebook 1.6, p.41).
'''Q:''' How do electric spells behave against targets in water, and what type are they?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 They deal double damage against a target in an Aquatic environment (e.g. PW 10 → 20); with Ignore Armor that's effectively an auto-wound unless the target is protected by an enchantment. [[Everlasting Rains]]' attacks are sorceries, as all offensive spells are; the [[Electromancy]] STK discrepancy is an error — STK 2 is correct (errata).


----
'''Q:''' Which protections stop "[[Ignore Armor]]"?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 [[Arcane Shield]] nullifies the Ignore Armor rule of criticals (not a spell's inherent Ignore Armor). [[Warding Barrier]] and [[Protective Barrier]] protect against essentially everything. [[Seigen, of the Keshobarai|Seigen]] halves all spell damage dealt to him.


<section end="Crouched" />
'''Q:''' Does [[Mindgame]] deal damage — specifically [[Confuse Target]], which has no PW?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 No — Confuse Target deals no damage (confirmed as not intended to). A spell can only deal damage with a PW value; the Mindgame wording exists because some Mindgame spells do have PW.


== [[Vigilance I|Vigilance I]] ==
'''Q:''' How does [[Redirect Damage]] resolve?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 It is not an enchantment; it's almost always a reactive attack against an activated enemy. If the Redirecting (reactive) model wins the confrontation, the opponent landed no successful Attack Rolls (negated by your Redirect roll); if it loses, the spell doesn't come into effect at all.


<section begin="Vigilance_I" />
'''Q:''' [[Ward]] vs Protective Ward, and how does Ward interact with a confrontation?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Protective Ward (Helian) is an Enchantment; Ward (Sand Kingdoms) is a sorcery usable as an Assist to help a targeted model. In a confrontation the roll resolves first: if the warded side wins, non-critical attacks against it are negated; if it loses, the Ward does nothing.


'''Q:''' Does Vigilance let a Sentinel use full STK on reactive ranged shots?
=== Summoning ===


'''A (meksmaks, Mar 07, 2026):''' Yes. Vigilance grants 360° Front arc and immunity to Surprise Attack, and the model keeps its full STK on reactive shots. The best counter is to Engage it in melee first, preventing ranged attacks and limiting LoS to Awareness.
'''Q:''' What is the [[Summoner|summoning]] limit?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 You may summon more creatures as long as the sum of the Tiers of all currently summoned creatures is less than the Summoner's Stamina. Example: a [[Vizier of Conjurations|Vizier]] (Stamina 2) with a [[Golem, Tier II|Golem]] (II) + [[Gargoyle, Tier I|Gargoyle]] (I) is at 3 — no more summons.


----
'''Q:''' Can the summoning limit be exceeded?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 Yes — the Vizier's Temporary Bind stratagem sets one summon's contribution to 0, letting you exceed the limit by one.


<section end="Vigilance_I" />
=== Classes, skills & upgrades ===


== [[Engaged|Engaged]] ==
'''Q:''' Does a model keep its Mana when [[Incapacitated]]?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 [[Summoner]]s lose their Mana (they share and actively access a common pool); other [[Mage]]s do not.


<section begin="Engaged" />
'''Q:''' Does [[Protector]] require the shortest route to reach the protected model?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 No — place the protecting model anywhere it ends base-to-base, and you may exceed half SPD in distance moved. Half SPD is only the condition to use the skill.


'''Q:''' Does an Unarmed attack or a Melee-type Spell (e.g. Flare) create an Engagement zone?
'''Q:''' Can named / character models take upgrades?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 They can't be assigned or buy upgrades in the Guildhall, but upgrades can be handed to them mid-game (they have inventory space).


'''A (meksmaks, Apr 28, 2026):''' No. You need a Melee Weapon to Engage — even a Dagger qualifies. Unarmed is a specific attack, not a Weapon. Similarly, Flare (a Melee Attack Spell) is not a Weapon and cannot create an Engagement zone.
'''Q:''' Do same-named (Roman-numeral) upgrades stack on one model?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 No — put the second copy on a different model.


----
'''Q:''' Does [[Tactician]] with Tactical Expertise deploy 10" forward?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Yes.


'''Q:''' Can an Incapacitated model still be Engaged?
'''Q:''' How does [[Burn]] work?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 First deal a Wound through normal means (past Armour). Then, for each X of Burn, roll additional Wound(s) ignoring Armour. If the first Wound fails, Burn doesn't trigger.


'''A (meksmaks, Feb 14, 2026):''' Yes — an Incapacitated model can still be Engaged. It just cannot act itself. The Reroll of the Recovery Roll is prohibited if either the Incapacitated model or another allied model in Base-to-Base contact is Engaged.
'''Q:''' Can [[Unstoppable]] be [[Dodge|dodged]]?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 Yes. (Undead given Unstoppable via the Chiyo stratagem also ignore size requirements.)


----
'''Q:''' Is there a cap on the Soldier bonus?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Yes — capped at a maximum of 3 (errata).


'''Q:''' Does holding a Ranged Weapon in hand remove your Engagement zone even if you also carry a sword?
'''Q:''' The Glyphscribe upgrade — can it add a brand-new weapon?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 No — per the card the weapon must already be in the model's inventory (re-selecting adds a quantity). The Guildhall letting you add a new one is a code quirk; follow the card.


'''A (deokel, Mar 2026):''' Yes — when you declare a Ranged Attack, you're holding the Ranged Weapon and have no passive Engagement zone, even if you also own a Melee Weapon. Engagement requires a Melee Weapon to be in hand.
'''Q:''' If a [[Slayer Dragoon]] is wounded while mounted and then dismounts, does the wound carry over? Can it be healed?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 The wound is tied to the mount — she can be healed while mounted, and while unmounted there's nothing to heal.


----
'''Q:''' Does the [[Expeditionary Hierophant|Hierophant]]'s Nursing aura target any model or Helian League only?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 Helian League models only — unless they have the [[Camaraderie]] upgrade.


'''Q:''' Do two casters in Base-to-Base contact Engage each other if neither has a Melee Weapon?
=== Scenarios & scoring ===


'''A (deokel, Apr 28, 2026):''' No. Only models with a Melee Weapon equipped can Engage. Two models with only spells and accessories (no melee weapons) in Base-to-Base contact are not Engaged — unless their accessory explicitly states it can Engage (like Chanra's staff).
'''Q:''' Does tabling the enemy win the game?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 No, not on its own. The game ends when a player would start their turn with no models on the table that aren't [[Incapacitated]] or [[Dead]], but victory is decided by objectives/scoring — a tabled player can still win.


----
'''Q:''' Does leaving the board while carrying objectives count as possessing them for scoring?<br>
<section end="Engaged" />
'''A:''' 🟢 Yes — but only if the scenario allows you to leave the board.


== [[Protector|Protector]] ==
'''Q:''' How does the Recovery roll interact with the game-end rule?<br>
'''A:''' 🟢 A Recovery check was added by errata: [[Incapacitated]] models may roll at the start of their turn to get up (on success, heal 1 HP and gain [[Weakened]]; reroll if an ally is in base contact). The game-end timing will be amended to account for this. [[Broken Morale]] can also end the game in some scenarios.


<section begin="Protector" />
'''Q:''' What is the Broken Morale threshold (the rulebook says "less than half," but the 4-model example treats 2 down as broken)?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 The rulebook wording is corrected in the V1.5 FAQ — follow the example (for a team of 4, being 2 down triggers Broken Morale).


'''Q:''' Can Protector void an attack by placing itself behind a wall with no LoS?
'''Q:''' How does scoring work in Quarter War?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 No scoring in Round 1, and a model must not be [[Incapacitated]] or [[Dead]] to count for scoring.


'''A (meksmaks, May 10, 2026):''' No — Protector cannot void an attack. If the attack was viable against the initial target, treat it as viable against the Protector regardless of its position. All modifiers (Cover, RCH, etc.) are calculated from the Protector's actual position.
'''Q:''' Do Upgrades count for zone control / "stronger presence"?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 No — those scenarios specify "do not include Upgrades," so use base model cost. The [[Slayer Dragoon]]'s mount ([[Lupus Rex|Lupus]]) is merged with the model for points, since it can't be Incapacitated on its own.


----
'''Q:''' Which scheme table do Goblins and Oni use?<br>
 
'''A:''' 🟢 The first half of any scheme table (results 1–10).
'''Q:''' Does the Protector's movement count toward triggering Engagement zones, and can it move through walls?
 
'''A (meksmaks, May 10, 2026):''' Protector doesn't Declare Movement — it appears in a legal spot next to the protected model. The ½ SPD limit includes vertical distance. We intend to clarify in a future FAQ that Protector cannot teleport through walls.


----
'''Q:''' Treasure Hunt (Scenario 3) — is interacting with a sigil + dodging its spell the only way to remove it?<br>
'''A:''' 🔵 No — you can also push an enemy model onto the sigil.


'''Q:''' Does Cover benefit the Protector after it steps in front of an attack?
=== Errata & FAQ status ===


'''A (meksmaks, May 10, 2026):''' Yes — all modifiers (including Cover) apply based on the Protector's actual position, to reward smart positioning.
* Recovery check added to the core rules ([[Incapacitated]] models can self-recover); game-end timing to be amended. 🟢
* [[Electromancy]] STK corrected to 2; Soldier bonus capped at 3. 🟢🔵
* [[Charm]]/reaction wording and [[Affinity]] vs [[Spellcraft]] wording queued for a future FAQ pass. 🟢
* The Guildhall app overrides printed cards for point costs, but can lag behind the current rules — the rulebook and FAQ are the final authority. 🟢

:''Compiled from the #rule-questions-skirmish Discord export. Official (🟢) answers come from the design/company team and take precedence over community (🔵) answers where they overlap.''
 
== [[Dodge|Dodge]] ==
 
<section begin="Dodge" />
 
'''Q:''' Is the movement after a successful Dodge mandatory?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Feb 2026):''' No — Rulebook 1.6, p.57 states the model 'can' move at the end of the Resolution Step. The movement is optional.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' If I Dodge a Sweep attack, am I protected from the Sweep's other Hits too?
 
'''A (deokel, Feb 2026):''' Dodge is per-model. If you Dodge successfully, only your model ignores the Hit — other models in range of the Sweep are still affected if the Attack succeeds.
 
----
<section end="Dodge" />
 
== [[Chain Attack|Chain Attack]] ==
 
<section begin="Chain_Attack" />
 
'''Q:''' Does Chain Attack trigger on Ranged Attacks and Spells?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Jun 17, 2026):''' Yes. Spells are not a separate attack category — they are a tool that can be Melee or Ranged, just like Weapons. Chain Attack triggers on any successful Hit by another friendly model, regardless of attack type.
 
----
 
<section end="Chain_Attack" />
 
== [[Fencing|Fencing]] ==
 
<section begin="Fencing" />
 
'''Q:''' As the Reactive player, does Fencing I (−3 modifier) apply even with no Activation Tokens left?
 
'''A (Dockel, Feb 2026):''' No — to use a Combat Art you must target an enemy model, which requires spending an Activation Token.
 
----
 
<section end="Fencing" />
 
== [[Assassination|Assassination]] ==
 
<section begin="Assassination" />
 
'''Q:''' If Nightshade uses Mastery of Poisons then Cunning Precaution (Assassination II), does she gain Poison I or Poison II?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Feb 2026):''' She gains Poison II. Mastery of Poisons upgrades any Poison I to Poison II, even if gained during that same turn.
 
----

<section begin="Chiyohime" />
 
'''Q:''' Does Chiyohime's Profane Mend stratagem revive a Dead model?
 
'''A (meksmaks, May 17, 2026):''' Yes — this case slipped through the rules. The FAQ will clarify that Profane Mend also cancels the Dead state when it grants 1 HP.
 
----
 
<section end="Chiyohime" />
 
== [[Misfortune|Misfortune]] ==
 
<section begin="Misfortune" />
 
'''Q:''' How does Misfortune work — once per die or once per roll? What if a failed die is rerolled into a success?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Feb 01, 2026):''' Misfortune rerolls every successful die once. If you reroll a failed die into a success with another ability, Misfortune still procs and you must reroll that newly-successful die. You may only reroll once per die due to Misfortune, but there is no cap on total dice rerolled.
 
----
 
<section end="Misfortune" />
 
== [[Warrior|Warrior]] ==
 
<section begin="Warrior" />
 
'''Q:''' Does the Warrior class provide any bonus on the model's own Active turn attacks?
 
'''A (meksmaks, May 17, 2026):''' No — Warrior has no positive effect on Active turn attacks. In Active Role, the Great Guard (for example) can have STK 2 on Polearm and STK 3 on other weapons via Second Wind (Fencing III).
 
----
 
<section end="Warrior" />
 
== [[Spells|Spells]] ==
 
<section begin="Spells" />
 
'''Q:''' When placing an AoE template, what happens if you cannot fully cover the main target?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Mar 30, 2026):''' You cannot perform the attack — analogous to a target being out of RCH. The template must fully cover the main target.

'''Q:''' When casting a Targetless AoE in Reaction, does the template need to be centred on the target?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Apr 01, 2026):''' You cannot use Targetless in Reaction. However, AoEs can still be positioned in Reaction — the template needs to fully cover the target (or as much as possible).
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Do AoE attacks apply the standard −4 Friendly Fire modifier and the 17–20 target-switch?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Apr 02, 2026):''' AoEs are exempt from the stackable −4 modifier and the 17–20 Friendly Fire rule. However, all Hits that can deal damage (including melee Sweeps) still trigger Friendly Fire rolls. Exception: spells that cannot damage friendly models (e.g. Blinding Light) are fully exempt.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' If a healing spell with STK 2 (e.g. A Second Chance, Hastened Recovery) targets the same model twice, does it apply the effect twice?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Apr 28, 2026):''' No. You cannot apply Attack Roll logic to an Assist-type spell. Splitting STK on different targets is fine, but targeting the same model twice does not double the healing.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Does Chain Attack trigger on Spells?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Jun 17, 2026):''' Yes — Spells are not a separate category. They are a tool that can be Melee or Ranged, just like Weapons. Chain Attack triggers on any successful Hit by another friendly model.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Can a Protector on elevated terrain intercept an attack on an ally at a different height?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Jun 17, 2026):''' Yes — Protector requires being within ½ SPD, including vertically. Otherwise it functions as normal.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Is the same spell an Attack or an Assist depending on the target?
 
'''A (deokel, Jun 2026):''' Yes — actions targeting friendly models = Assist; actions targeting enemies = Attack. The same spell can function as either depending on its target. Casting a healing spell on an enemy (if it has a harmful effect) would be an Attack.

'''Q:''' With Blinding Light (STK 2 Targetless), can you place two templates in two different spots?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Feb 25, 2026):''' Yes — STK 2 in the Active Phase means you can place two separate templates in completely different spots.

'''Q:''' Does the Quest end immediately if all of a player's models are Incapacitated at the start of their turn?
 
'''A (bubalosoldier, Apr 17, 2026):''' Yes — this rule is still valid as written. It is under review, but remains in place until the next rules update.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Does starting your activation already in Base-to-Base contact count as 'coming to base contact'?
 
'''A (bubalosoldier, Apr 17, 2026):''' Yes — starting your activation already in contact counts for effects that trigger on 'come to base contact' (e.g. Agony, Treasure Hunt).
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Which is the most accurate source — Guildhall or the online rulebook?
 
'''A (meksmaks, Apr 24, 2026):''' Guildhall is still undergoing updates. The 1.6 online rulebook is the best source of knowledge until Guildhall is fully updated.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Do Hostiles in Skirmish perform Recovery Rolls? Can you pick up an Intrigue while Engaged?
 
'''A (meksmaks, May 08, 2026):''' 1. Hostiles follow the same rules as player models — unless the scenario forbids it, they can attempt Recovery Rolls. 2. If it is not forbidden, it is allowed.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' During a Ceasefire scenario rule, can VP still be scored?
 
'''A (deokel, Mar 2026):''' During Ceasefire you cannot score any VP — actions that would normally score VP are wasted during this phase.

<section begin="Sweep" />
 
'''Q:''' How exactly does Sweep resolve — does the initial target get hit first, then others?
 
'''A (deokel, Feb 2026):''' Decomposing Sweep: first you roll for an Attack, and if successful, prior to it becoming a Hit on the Target, you check the Sweep condition. All models within LoS and Melee RCH suffer a Hit simultaneously. It's a broad swing that lands before the initial Hit is even processed.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Can Sweep apply effects like Cleave and Knockdown to all models in range?
 
'''A (deokel, Feb 2026):''' Yes — Sweep is a broad attack. Effects like Cleave and Knockdown apply to all models that suffer a Wound from it, not just the original target.

== [[Finishing Strike|Finishing Strike]] ==
 
<section begin="Finishing_Strike" />
 
'''Q:''' What is the damage resolution order when Berserker, Finishing Strike, Cleave, and Burn all interact?
 
'''A (deokel, Feb–Mar 2026):''' Resolution happens in simultaneous windows: (1) Initial Damage rolls — Berserker can negate here, which also prevents Cleave, Burn and Finishing Strike from triggering. (2) If a Wound is dealt: Finishing Strike, Cleave, and Burn all resolve simultaneously. Berserker can negate each in their own window. Once a Wound has been dealt and effects triggered, it cannot be retroactively negated.

== [[Berserker|Berserker]] ==
 
<section begin="Berserker" />
 
'''Q:''' If Berserker negates the initial Wound, do Cleave, Burn, and Finishing Strike still apply?
 
'''A (deokel, Mar 2026):''' No — if Berserker negates the Wound from the initial Damage roll, Cleave, Burn and Finishing Strike never trigger because those effects are contingent on a model suffering a Wound. They exist in the next simultaneous window only if the Wound was dealt.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Can Berserker negate Wounds from multiple simultaneous Damage rolls (Chain Attack, Sweep, etc.)?
 
'''A (deokel, Mar 2026):''' Yes — Berserker can negate all simultaneous Damage rolls in the same resolution window. Each Wound is rolled separately in T.

== [[Impede|Impede]] ==
 
<section begin="Impede" />
 
'''Q:''' Does Impede counter Hit and Retreat?
 
'''A (deokel, Feb 2026):''' Yes — Impede is a hard counter to Hit and Retreat. When a Hit and Retreat model tries to disengage, a model with Impede in Melee RCH can declare an Attack of Opportunity, which immediately re-Engages and stops the Moving model.
 
----
 
<section end="Impede" />
 
== [[Flying|Flying]] ==
 
<section begin="Flying" />
 
'''Q:''' Can a Flying model be targeted by a Melee Attack?
 
'''A (deokel, Feb 2026):''' No — a Flying model cannot be targeted by a Melee Attack. However, if the Flying model itself declares a Melee Attack, the opponent can switch their Reaction to an Attack. A Flying model within RCH of a Sweep targeting another model will still receive a Hit from that Sweep.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Does Slowed from a Spell (like Anari's ability) last beyond the end of the turn?
 
'''A (deokel, Apr–May 2026):''' No — Slowed from Anari's spells ends at the end of the turn, similarly to Archery II's Slowed effect. This was confirmed after clarification — the duration got lost during rulebook reorganisation.
 
----
 
<section end="Flying" />
 
== [[Burn (X)|Burn (X)]] ==
 
<section begin="Burn" />
 
'''Q:''' How does Ice Shield interact with Burn — does the −3 PW reduction apply to Burn rolls too?
 
'''A (deokel, Mar 2026):''' Yes — Ice Shield's −3 PW reduction applies to Burn damage rolls as well. The second damage roll still has −3 to PW.
 
----
 
'''Q:''' Can Berserker negate Wounds from Burn rolls?
 
'''A (deokel, Mar 2026):''' Yes — Burn damage rolls happen in the same simultaneous window as Finishing Strike and Cleave (after the initial Wound). Berserker can roll T for each of these Wounds separately.

Revision as of 09:44, 29 July 2026

Answers from Discord

Rules clarifications collected from the #rule-questions-skirmish channel of the official Eldfall Chronicles Discord (July 2025 – July 2026). Terms with wiki articles are linked.

Legend: 🟢 Official / team (designer bubalosoldier, staff meksmaks) · 🔵 Community (experienced players). Informal answers — the rulebook and official FAQ/Errata are the final authority.

Turn structure & initiative

Q: If a player wins initiative and picks turn order, must they say who goes first immediately, or after deployment?
A: 🟢 Immediately. The initiative winner chooses either who goes first, or the table side + deployment mode; the other player then decides the remaining choice. Deployment order follows turn order (first player deploys first), so it can't be deferred.

Movement & Flicker

Q: What counts as a "Movement" for Flicker?
A: 🟢 A Movement is Walk, Dash, Jump or Climb (everything in the Movement Step; even Idle is a Movement). Flicker works on those. Repositioning from Dodge, Follow-up, Knockback or Hit and Retreat is a move, not a Movement, so it can't trigger Flicker.

Q: Can Flicker pass through terrain taller/wider than the model?
A: 🟢 Yes — Flicker moves in any direction, ignoring obstacles, as long as the model ends in a legal position (e.g. through a wall to end behind an enemy, if within range).

Q: Can a model change its facing after being hit?
A: 🟢 Yes — it may turn / adjust line of sight after being hit (rulebook p. 22).

Combat, confrontation & attacks

Q: Sweep vs a model in confrontation, while a second model within reach dodges successfully and the attacker wins — does the dodging model get hit?
A: 🔵 The dodging model avoids the hit because its Dodge succeeded — unless the hit was a Critical.

Q: How does the Sweep trait work?
A: 🔵 Sweep is a trait, not a skill. For every successful attack, every model in the 360° arc within the weapon's range that hasn't dodged takes a hit.

Q: What happens when both models roll the same value on a Confrontation roll?
A: 🔵 Nothing — the attacks neutralise each other.

Q: Does a high Toughness make 20 a critical on the damage roll? Does Armour act as a modifier?
A: 🔵 No. Toughness has no crit value — you never use it for the Attack Roll, and only Attack Rolls can crit. Fencing affects OFF/DEF/ACC/INT/M, not T. A Power of Attack above 20 isn't a crit; it's just auto-damage against models whose Armour is below the final PW.

Q: Is there such a thing as a critical Dodge roll?
A: 🟢 No. A Dodge only succeeds or fails; rolling a 1 is the same as rolling a 16, and a 1 always succeeds.

Q: In what order do modifiers apply, and can an attribute reach 0?
A: 🔵 Additions/subtractions first, then halving/doubling (halving rounds up). A stat won't reach 0 by halving alone — once Agility is 1, halving still returns 1.

Q: Does Poison reduce base Toughness or the final value?
A: 🟢 It applies to Toughness itself (base value). Example: T8, Poisoned (−6) and Crippled (halved) → (8 − 6) ÷ 2 = 1.

Q: Do critical hits apply to ranged attacks?
A: 🔵 Yes — crits apply to ranged attacks and to spells, not just melee.

Q: Does Hit and Retreat give two movements plus an attack, and can its Sweep hit models in the rear arc?
A: 🟢 Yes. Hit and Retreat cancels the Engaged state; the Sweep then hits every model within the weapon's reach, including the rear arc.

Q: An enemy moves into base-to-base in my rear arc (no LoS, no Vigilance) — can I attack back?
A: 🟢 No — you can only Dodge. Engagement is applied at the Resolution step, so without LoS and without an Engaged state you can't declare an attack in reaction.

Q: Is Agility penalised when dodging without LoS / from the rear arc?
A: 🟢 Yes — it is halved, but only in Reaction. You may Dodge in the Active role without penalty even without LoS.

Q: Several of my models react with attacks against one active enemy — how does the confrontation work?
A: 🟢 Only one reacting model resolves a Confrontation with the active model (the one striking it simultaneously). The others perform their attacks normally and the target can't respond to those — except it may try to Dodge everything.

Q: What does Defensive Stance do?
A: 🟢 It defaults the model's base STK (as printed on the weapon) to 1 in the Active phase, raising reactive Strike in exchange. It has nothing to do with Sentinel.

Ranged attacks & engagement

Q: If A and B are Engaged, can A make a ranged attack against C in reaction?
A: 🔵 No — the Engaged state locks all ranged attacks.

Q: When can a ranged attack be declared in reaction?
A: 🔵 Whenever the activating model is within the weapon's reach (ranged weapon or spell) and in LoS — and as an attack of opportunity if it leaves. (p. 43 Note 2: if the enemy would end within its own melee range, a confrontation happens instead.)

Q: How does measuring work in Standard mode?
A: 🟢 You may measure any time (but not while moving), within your Awareness, and measure your move when you declare a Movement. You must declare the Movement before you gain the distance you can pre-measure with — high-SPD/flying models can't pre-measure a full run without declaring it.

Templates & area of effect

Q: War Darts / any AoE hitting several models — one damage roll or one per model?
A: 🔵 One roll to hit, then a separate damage roll for each affected model.

Q: Where can an AoE circle (e.g. Fireball) be placed relative to LoS?
A: 🔵 You only need the template to fully cover the target point you select, and that point must be in LoS; there's no rule on the point's size. (Cover between the caster and the blast centre is taken into account.)

Q: Can a model whose base is larger than the template (e.g. a Colossus vs a small circular/spray) be affected, given the target must be "fully covered"?
A: ⚠️ Unresolved in-channel — no definitive ruling was given. Flagged for the FAQ / designers.

States & conditions

Q: When does Crouched from Knockdown take effect, and what does it do?
A: 🟢 Applied at the end of the Resolution step. It doesn't immediately benefit the attacker, but a Dodge reaction in that same sequence won't cancel it either. A model activating while Crouched must still stand up in its Movement phase, leaving a window for an attack of opportunity while still Crouched. While Crouched: halved ARM, no Engagement range, fixed STK 1, drops a Rider from a Mount, vulnerable to being "daggered down."

Q: Does Crouched interact with STK-boosting abilities?
A: 🔵 Yes — it fixes STK at 1, negating abilities that would raise Strike (Sentinel, Fencing III, Assassination III, Armsmaster, etc.).

Q: What does the Weakened state do, and how is it different from Crippled?
A: 🔵 Weakened halves Toughness; Crippled halves Awareness. They are separate states.

Q: Does a trait like Inspiring stay active while a model is Incapacitated?
A: 🔵 Yes — only the Dead state cancels traits and skills; Incapacitation doesn't remove them, and Awareness isn't modified by being Incapacitated.

Q: If an attack Hits but deals no damage, are on-hit and on-damage effects applied?
A: 🔵 It depends on the trigger: on-hit effects (e.g. Stagger, Knockdown) apply on the hit; on-damage effects (e.g. Bleed) apply only on a wound. Either way the states come online at the end of the Activation Sequence.

Reacting to hidden models

Q: Can targetless spells be used in reaction, and can you react to a Shrouded model without Foresight?
A: 🔵 Targetless spells can't be used in reaction. You can react to a Shrouded model via Dodge or Perceive if you can see its token; Perceive requires it within your Awareness. Against Stealth I with no LoS you can't react unless you have Vigilance (360° LoS); even Clairvoyant doesn't beat Stealth.

Spells & magic

Q: Does having an Affinity let a model cast spells?
A: 🟢 No — casting needs both an Affinity and a Spellcraft. Affinity on its own is usually a vulnerability (and can deny certain interactions).

Q: How does a Mystic's casting stat work?
A: 🟢 A Mystic uses Morale (M) to cast the spell only — not for damage (damage still uses the normal value, e.g. INT).

Q: Are earlier Enchantment effects removed when I cast another enchantment on a different model?
A: 🔵 No — enchantment effects persist and are removed at the start of the caster's next Strategic Phase (unless stated otherwise).

Q: How do electric spells behave against targets in water, and what type are they?
A: 🔵 They deal double damage against a target in an Aquatic environment (e.g. PW 10 → 20); with Ignore Armor that's effectively an auto-wound unless the target is protected by an enchantment. Everlasting Rains' attacks are sorceries, as all offensive spells are; the Electromancy STK discrepancy is an error — STK 2 is correct (errata).

Q: Which protections stop "Ignore Armor"?
A: 🔵 Arcane Shield nullifies the Ignore Armor rule of criticals (not a spell's inherent Ignore Armor). Warding Barrier and Protective Barrier protect against essentially everything. Seigen halves all spell damage dealt to him.

Q: Does Mindgame deal damage — specifically Confuse Target, which has no PW?
A: 🔵 No — Confuse Target deals no damage (confirmed as not intended to). A spell can only deal damage with a PW value; the Mindgame wording exists because some Mindgame spells do have PW.

Q: How does Redirect Damage resolve?
A: 🟢 It is not an enchantment; it's almost always a reactive attack against an activated enemy. If the Redirecting (reactive) model wins the confrontation, the opponent landed no successful Attack Rolls (negated by your Redirect roll); if it loses, the spell doesn't come into effect at all.

Q: Ward vs Protective Ward, and how does Ward interact with a confrontation?
A: 🔵 Protective Ward (Helian) is an Enchantment; Ward (Sand Kingdoms) is a sorcery usable as an Assist to help a targeted model. In a confrontation the roll resolves first: if the warded side wins, non-critical attacks against it are negated; if it loses, the Ward does nothing.

Summoning

Q: What is the summoning limit?
A: 🔵 You may summon more creatures as long as the sum of the Tiers of all currently summoned creatures is less than the Summoner's Stamina. Example: a Vizier (Stamina 2) with a Golem (II) + Gargoyle (I) is at 3 — no more summons.

Q: Can the summoning limit be exceeded?
A: 🟢 Yes — the Vizier's Temporary Bind stratagem sets one summon's contribution to 0, letting you exceed the limit by one.

Classes, skills & upgrades

Q: Does a model keep its Mana when Incapacitated?
A: 🟢 Summoners lose their Mana (they share and actively access a common pool); other Mages do not.

Q: Does Protector require the shortest route to reach the protected model?
A: 🔵 No — place the protecting model anywhere it ends base-to-base, and you may exceed half SPD in distance moved. Half SPD is only the condition to use the skill.

Q: Can named / character models take upgrades?
A: 🔵 They can't be assigned or buy upgrades in the Guildhall, but upgrades can be handed to them mid-game (they have inventory space).

Q: Do same-named (Roman-numeral) upgrades stack on one model?
A: 🟢 No — put the second copy on a different model.

Q: Does Tactician with Tactical Expertise deploy 10" forward?
A: 🔵 Yes.

Q: How does Burn work?
A: 🔵 First deal a Wound through normal means (past Armour). Then, for each X of Burn, roll additional Wound(s) ignoring Armour. If the first Wound fails, Burn doesn't trigger.

Q: Can Unstoppable be dodged?
A: 🟢 Yes. (Undead given Unstoppable via the Chiyo stratagem also ignore size requirements.)

Q: Is there a cap on the Soldier bonus?
A: 🔵 Yes — capped at a maximum of 3 (errata).

Q: The Glyphscribe upgrade — can it add a brand-new weapon?
A: 🔵 No — per the card the weapon must already be in the model's inventory (re-selecting adds a quantity). The Guildhall letting you add a new one is a code quirk; follow the card.

Q: If a Slayer Dragoon is wounded while mounted and then dismounts, does the wound carry over? Can it be healed?
A: 🔵 The wound is tied to the mount — she can be healed while mounted, and while unmounted there's nothing to heal.

Q: Does the Hierophant's Nursing aura target any model or Helian League only?
A: 🔵 Helian League models only — unless they have the Camaraderie upgrade.

Scenarios & scoring

Q: Does tabling the enemy win the game?
A: 🟢 No, not on its own. The game ends when a player would start their turn with no models on the table that aren't Incapacitated or Dead, but victory is decided by objectives/scoring — a tabled player can still win.

Q: Does leaving the board while carrying objectives count as possessing them for scoring?
A: 🟢 Yes — but only if the scenario allows you to leave the board.

Q: How does the Recovery roll interact with the game-end rule?
A: 🟢 A Recovery check was added by errata: Incapacitated models may roll at the start of their turn to get up (on success, heal 1 HP and gain Weakened; reroll if an ally is in base contact). The game-end timing will be amended to account for this. Broken Morale can also end the game in some scenarios.

Q: What is the Broken Morale threshold (the rulebook says "less than half," but the 4-model example treats 2 down as broken)?
A: 🔵 The rulebook wording is corrected in the V1.5 FAQ — follow the example (for a team of 4, being 2 down triggers Broken Morale).

Q: How does scoring work in Quarter War?
A: 🔵 No scoring in Round 1, and a model must not be Incapacitated or Dead to count for scoring.

Q: Do Upgrades count for zone control / "stronger presence"?
A: 🔵 No — those scenarios specify "do not include Upgrades," so use base model cost. The Slayer Dragoon's mount (Lupus) is merged with the model for points, since it can't be Incapacitated on its own.

Q: Which scheme table do Goblins and Oni use?
A: 🟢 The first half of any scheme table (results 1–10).

Q: Treasure Hunt (Scenario 3) — is interacting with a sigil + dodging its spell the only way to remove it?
A: 🔵 No — you can also push an enemy model onto the sigil.

Errata & FAQ status

  • Recovery check added to the core rules (Incapacitated models can self-recover); game-end timing to be amended. 🟢
  • Electromancy STK corrected to 2; Soldier bonus capped at 3. 🟢🔵
  • Charm/reaction wording and Affinity vs Spellcraft wording queued for a future FAQ pass. 🟢
  • The Guildhall app overrides printed cards for point costs, but can lag behind the current rules — the rulebook and FAQ are the final authority. 🟢
