Surviving your own ball and chain....

[Leipziger]

The other day, I played Valen and whilst using Fezglitch, I managed to plough into my own prone player As he was already prone, we made a straight armour roll, which he survived. However, from here, we were unsure whether that player could take a turn as he:

a) wasn't knocked over by the ball and chain
b) didn't have his armour broken

We decided that he could take a turn. was this correct?

Nope. Getting a player from your own team knocked over is a turnover, unless the rule explicitly mentions that it is not.

Alex said that the player was already down Plasmoid, not knocked down by Fezglitch.

I generally allow the player to take the move with the prone guy (then again, I'm usually doing so badly with my gobbos that my opponents don't object ). But @I would be interested to see the official ruling (there are no ruling specifically against it...)

[Glowworm]

Id say the prone player could take an action in the next turn, if he was prone & pushed back as part of a "chain pushback" there would be nothing stopping him from taking an action.

I understand that there was an armour roll involved, but as it was passed i dont see a problem..

I play gobbo's so have to agree with the previous post!!

[plasmoid]

Oops, my mistake.
Yep - he can move then.

Agreed ... nothing happened to him that would prevent him from taking his action.

Its similar to a Stunty landing and being Placed Prone ... he still gets to take an action that turn if he has not yet.

While at it, since my search-skills obviously leaves alot to be wished for, is this about right:

Cas with chainsaw/stab/bombs = no SPP
Cas with Ball and chain = SPP?

Correct
