Couldn't, for the life of me, figure this out Saturday.

GG #27 Hulk wants to Charge figure A (an opposing character).

Hulk wants to pick up a heavy object as he does so. However he does not become adjacent to said object until he is already adjacent to figure A (an opposing character).

Can he pick said object up?

Remember the movement portion of Charge ends as soon as you become adjacent to an opposing character, unless you have a way to ignore the rules of adjacency, which this Hulk does not.

He stops moving as soon as he moves into adjacency, and cannot pick up the object.

Whew...nailed it.

Thanks!

What if he ignored characters on movement somehow (say Flight or L/C)?

Then he could pick up the object.

Can characters with flight ignore opposing characters when charging?

Ignore? No.

But that is because ignore means something very, very specific in Heroclix. What Flight does do is:

Flight
This character ignores the effects of hindering terrain, elevated terrain, and outdoor blocking terrain on movement. A character using this ability can move through squares adjacent to and occupied by opposing characters without stopping, but must break away normally. An elevated character using this ability ignores knock back damage if its knock back path crosses the boundary to a lower level.


So a character using Flight can move through/around/over opposing characters. And Charge lets characters move. But the characters are NOT ignored.

Wow I been playing wrong for a long time then. So my character with flight can move through opposing characters and not get stuck as soon as I enter an adjacent square.

Yes, that's basically the main benefit of Flight.

I thought you could pick up an object a character was hiding under with charge.. because you can pick up objects when you enter squares adjacent to them.

So it's one of those "what happens first" arguments. Does your movement stop, or do you pick up the object? Is it one of those "players choice" like Skrulls and Shape change?

Your movement will stop when you enter a square adjacent to an opposing character and thus were never moving while adjacent to the object the opposing character is standing on.

No, no, no, the main benefit of Flight is that you get to make whooshing sounds as you move your figure around the board.

I thought that that went away with soaring.

What? When did soaring get taken out?

Sinec your text isn't in teal, I'm going to assume you're being serious with this question.

It went away when the flying stands went away, so when Crisis was released.
