Random movement

[dongilles]

Hello all,

I had a game against Orcs and Goblins and we were wondering the following:

For Fanatics and the big exploding squids (squid hoppers???):
Do these have to move the full inches that are on the dice or is this the max they can move but you can move less?

Doom Divers
After you throw the artillery die, you may throw a D6 and correct. But again does the diver need to move the full die roll?

With random movement you must go the full distance, page 74 of the rule book says to "move the model directly forward a number of inches equal to the roll of the die" it doesn't give you any other options.

Same with the Diver.

thanks for the fast reply.

An other question does, the doom diver need to move in a straight line? because it's no where specified that his move is a random movement

"... place the flying Doom Diver Goblin model on the target point, and then roll for scatter as you would for a stone thrower. After doing this you may roll a D6 and move the Doom Diver model by that many inches in any direction. "

I would say a straight line. Pick the direction and move it in a straight line however many inches you roll. Also not that even if you roll a hit with the scatter you can still deviate if you would like, and you can hit multiple units as well!
