Fanatics and Multiple Block

Post by PubBowler »

Am I correct in thinking that Fanatics can take Multiple Block but would never get to use it as they never declare a Block Action?

Grab gets a special dispensation in the skill description but MB does not (although it is not listed amoung the skills a Fanatic may never take).

While we're talking about fanatics, a recent reading of the rulebook (the bit where is says "each and every" square) suggests that the fanatic must move 3 squares if he moves. This seems bonkers to me, can someone reassure me that it's not the case?

Then back to Mr Pubbowler's question, which I think he's right about :D

No suggestion about it. Yes he MUST move all 3 squares and the Star Player must move all 4.

And a Fanatic can take the Multiple Block skill but you are correct that he'd never be able to use it.

@ Sann: Ha, your attempt to derail my thread failed.
Although your question did get answered first....
