in the Sentinel rulebooks:

7. Can carry friendly figures per the standard rules for carrying figures. SENTINELS CANNOT MAKE AN ATTACK WHILE CARRYING A FIGURE.

didn't we all know this? you cannot carry someone then attack because you were already taxiing the person, unless you had running shot.

so my question is, is this ruling talking about the Sentinel's Running Shot? i cant RS and carry someone?

thanks!

and even then, dont you DROP your fare off BEFORE you commence the attack with running shot, or is the carrying/attacking part of the entire action, hence sentinel cant be carrying anybody when RUNNING SHOTTING? anybody can confirm this? shin?

thanks!

The Sentinel can carry someone for the movement part of running shot:

then explain the ruling in the sentinel rulebook, as i ve quoted above. it really didnt make sense at all to me because you would never be able to do such a thing, carrying and attacking someone, i wondered what that really meant. anybody know?

You need to speak WizKids-ese.

Many times those who speak this tongue create confusing, enigmatic sentence structure that challenges logic and common sense. Sometimes sentences lead nowhere, as in your example. Other times, this crafty language can contradict itself even within the same thought. Further confusing matters, even those that can speak WizKids-ese can't understand another who speaks it as well, and the two will battle for meaning of the same phrasing. Get yourself a good pocket translation book, because if you ignore those items that don't make any sense, they'll wind up in the FAQ and some judge will smack you with a revised idea that'll crush your tournament hopes.
GOOD LUCK.

Yea but without a sir know-a-not they still wont have an answer.

know a not or know a lot? lol

This is like any other flying figure carrying someone. You move, drop the figure, then shoot. This simply means you can not move, shoot, then drop the figure. This matters because figure placement may block LOS or depend on a successful attack.

<<know a not or know a lot? lol>>

Oh dude stop my ribs hurt. Next question comming right up. We'll be right back with another question. Oh god can't see to type....

Turns out the line was redundant to the rules on carrying. In a WizKids document...imagine that.

ah, great, at least it's now cleared up. thanks!
