shared deliver message issue

[arkno]

my opponent during a game killed his own master so that he could deliver a message but i could not any ruling about this since i find it most unfair...

[Gruesome]

yep.

[nilus]

Perfectly legal and fair

The problem is that your Master is, in most cases, the single most important model on the table so its rarely worth it to kill it.

[The Godlyness]

Should have killed your own. Then tried completing your schems for the win.

[arkno]

well it is not really fair but whatever i guess.

[WindlordRyu]

It's 100% fair since you can do exactly the same thing.

So the rule about selecting a target for an attack in the rules manual that says you can target any model except your crew's Master or the model making the attack got changed then?

You are reading from an old, OOP book.

Yeah sorry, that's what I meant, it obviously got changed from book 1 of rules to currently used book of rules .

Shame it did get changed, cause it doesn't feel right to me. It's like playing chess but taking your King of the board before your opponent can get a check-mate, seems like bad form...

The end result is actually more like taking both your King AND Queen off the board. Yeah, you deny them the strategy, but you have lost your most powerful model
