So if he's on the forward slope (the side of the hill facing the cannon), a model can be hit. Also, if a model is taller than the hill (easy enough with most hills), a cannon ball bouncing over the crest will still hit him even if he's on the reverse slope. Best if he's out of TLOS altogether.<br /><br />It's not a very clear situation, and where hills have obvious cliffs or steep slopes, discuss with your opponent on what will stop a cannon ball. The Temple of Skulls hill by GW will probably do it, but then the grassy sloped ones won't. <br /><br />Muzzle loading cannons have a fairly low muzzle-velocity, round shot and a ballistic trajectory, so bouncing uphill is easily done.

Because if you aim the cannon at him it's always going to overshoot and if you aim it anywhere before him ie. on the ground before the hill it will always bounce into the hill?Runeflameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02297119865922626366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5990065488029656426.post-20381454684355468092013-04-16T11:03:25.786+12:002013-04-16T11:03:25.786+12:00Sweet as.

I've seen the arguments for this, and I disagree with them.<br /><br />It does need a FAQ, but in the absence of one from GW, you might want to run this past Pete Williamson, to get a ruling on it for Runefang. It's not an issue if you do run the Eternal Blade for all your games, but it might be a cause for argument if you do decide to Portaglyph him in a game. Better a neutral ruling on it beforehand so you can plan your games accordingly.Tanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00111345902716591780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5990065488029656426.post-31509440267957035362013-04-15T15:34:42.789+12:002013-04-15T15:34:42.789+12:00RAW you can hide Epidimius and still count as coll...RAW you can hide Epidimius and still count as collecting tally, some people are comparing him to schroedinger's cat when people do this.

Do you think he can still have an effect even if he's not present on the table, due to him being 'alive'?Tanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00111345902716591780noreply@blogger.com
