Going for it and Stab

Post by Teluriel »

When you take the blitz action to stab someone; do you have to go for it if necessary?

Why would you waste your Blitz if you weren't going to go all the way with it?

TBB is playing up for me atm, so I'll keep this simple.

Yes, it's exactly the same as a normal block where the GFIs are concerned.

Galak has already ruled that you must block after throwing the GFI dice when blitzing on a normal blitz.

Think of it like Dauntless, once you have thrown the dauntless dice, you are committed to the block / blitz.

Once you have thrown the final GFI dice, you are committed to the blitz and you can then stab or block as you wish.

- As stab blitzing IS normal blitzing right until the point you active stab to roll d6s against armor instead of block dice .. all the normal blitzing rules apply.
