Diving Catch and Catch

Post by NightDragon 2 »

Can a player with this skill (DC) also use the catch skill if he fails to catch the ball after using DC to get in to the ball square?

Cheers. And another question for you Galak: why are DE's considered a tough team to play when they all have AG 4 and on their roster they have plenty of players with a move of 7? In my experience good MA and good AG with an average AV is a good recipe for success.

Because Frenzy, Dump Off, Shadowing, and Stab are all non-standard skills so a novice coach might have difficulty using them properly.

It's worth noting that under LRB 5.0 (which considering your dark elf question is what I think your talking about) You do not move into the balls square when using diving catch. You remain in your own square.
