8th Ed. Question about the stupidity rule and fear

[Calum]

hey guys for a couple of days now ive been wondering...

When a cold one take its stupidity test do use the cold ones leadership or the riders leadership...

If a scar veteran on cold one joins another unit would the stupidity rule effect the whole unit...

cheers.

I'm not sure but, I don't think a mounted Scar-veteran can join a unit that is not comprised of other mounts... which would be cold ones... which means they would suffer from stupidity anyway. I do know that the Stupid model is the one that takes the test, so it's the Cold One's Ld that needs testing.

I could be wrong though.

KK thanks hopefully it is the riders leadership as the 3 leadership of the cold one would need snake eyes and little more. Thank the lord for the cold blooded speciar rule

Mounts always use the leadership of the rider since stupidity is assumed to affect the whole model..

If a scar vet on cold one joined a unit on foot, which I believe he still can do but no longer benefits from a good look out sir, then yes if he is stupid the whole unit suffers the effect since a unit can only ever move at the rate of the slowest model.

No longer benefits from any lookout sir,,,,

Also the rider and mount are considered a single model except where the heroes/lords are mounted and the mount/lord is killed the other continues to fight on it's own
