Follow up after a block

Post by LittleFatPetey »

Dudes just a quick one (oh er missis), do you need to need to declare that you are going to follow up a block with a move before or can you do it after?

I assume you are speaking of following up to the empty spot left after a player has been knocked back.
In our league you do have to say you are following up befor you roll on armor.
Im not sure if its in the LRB that you have to so might be more of a house rule then offical.

LRB, page 11:
Follow Up Moves: A player who has made a block is allowed to make a special follow up move and occupy a square vacated by a player that they have pushed back. The player’s coach must decide whether to follow up before any other dice rolls are made. This move is free, and the player can ignore enemy tackle zones when he makes the move (ie, he does not have to dodge to enter the square). Players that are blitzing are allowed to make follow up moves, and the move does not cost them any of their movement (as they paid a square in order to make the block, they have effectively already paid for the move).

So concluding. You block your opponent, move him away and then decide to follow up or not BEFORE making the armour/injury roll! :D :smoking:
