If you have an Attack Bike Unit with two A-Bikes and one is killed do you have to take a Stand Alone Test every turn in order for the single bike to remain in play??? I hope not! Its still a scoring unit right?

Any rate, thanks for the help.

I run BA, so I was fielding two squads of two A-Bikes w/MM for anti tank(2 squads 2 modles each)...Now I guess I'll have to reconsider running three solo w/MM. But then the problem is spending 50 points...I feel so short on anti tank. Thanks for the help GUYZ.

WOW! My head hurts...:grin:

So to sum it up;

1) My single A-Bike takes a LMS test and fails falling back 3d6 inches.

2)Next turn he automatically regroups because of ATSKNF.

3) He tests again to see if he can pass LMS, he does, so he can move/shoot normally.

4) This cycle then repeats itself until the games is over or my A-bike is killed.

However I believe its movement phase is lost to regrouping, page 49 third paragraph down under regrouping, "If the Unit passes its LD test, it regroups. It cannot move any further during that movement phase, except that models are allowed to consolidate. Once a unit regroups it fights as normal." I guess its pretty vague when it come to LMS.

Do I have this right or am I totally lost. Please let me know...

I think you would actually test at full leadership, because your testing to regroup. The minus modifier only comes into play when you make a morale check as opposed to a leadership test. The only modifiers listed under regrouping is a +1 if no enemy units are in LOS.

If a unit was at half strength and a Farseer performed Mind War would you have the Model be at minus to leadership. How about Pinning tests are they at minus to Leadership at half strength? I guess I'm being more of a Devils Advocate just to get this portion of the rules down. Whats your guyz thoughts on LS Checks vs. Morale Checks?

Edit;I missed page three of POST, which answered my question so disregard above questions. You guys really know your stuff, thanks for the help.
