Hold and Goad Charge question
Posted: Sun Oct 08, 2023 4:46 pm
Hey Rob,
I think we discussed this before and it's also something that I've searched to see if it has been discussed before but I couldn't find anything. But it came up in a recent game against Dayle and I wanted to double-check it with you.
This is concerning how Hold and Goad function as an engagement reaction, particularly the Charge! option.
Normally others and I have played it as unit A engages unit B, either direct or indirect, then unit B declares its reaction and elects to hold and goad choosing Charge! as the goad effect, unit B charges into the engaging unit A, then completes it's reaction as per the 7.10.6.11 step of resolving the engagement reaction, then unit A would finish up their engagement.
The tricky part is that in between this does unit B also get to resolve their linked attack action from the Charge! goad action? And do they get to do this before Unit A attacks from their original engagement? It looks like it does from reading the 6.10 engagement action, the 6.57 goad action, and then the 7.10 engagement reactions section.
But im just reading them all a few times to see if I have missed something.
