Hi,
New to the forum but been around a while, I'm teaching my great-nephew IHMN in the hope my niece won't be bankrupted by Warhammer.
I'm happy to make up house rules when needed but just want to clarify with your good selves if I'm reading the IHMN rules correctly and, more importantly, fairly - thoughts, comments and efforts to point out the blindingly obvious all welcome ...
Picture the scene, Mohan Singh faces a spear armed native, with only a 5" gap between them.
The native gets initiative and Runs towards Mohan - this would normally give a 9" move but the native stops after 5" when in base-to-base contact with Mohan.
On Mohan's turn he successfully makes a Pluck roll, saunters 1" away from the native, turns and smiles .....
On the shooting phase Mohan blasts the native into oblivion not even having a movement penalty to make the shot difficult whilst the native's last thoughts were 'Why didn't I follow him?' (Kwa nini si mimi kumfuata?)
Successful Pluck roll or not this doesn't seem particularly fair. Should the native be allowed to follow up to his full move? Or should the disengaging party lose the chance to shoot? Both of these options seem to apply to 'Movement & Terror' situations but not to conventional Fighting.
Have I read this wrong? Or am I being to soft on the poor natives?
Regards
Mark B.
