Can Burrowers aim the turn they pop up? A strict reading would imply that they can.

Scalpel came up with at good point in another thread, that I most certainly had totally glossed over.


pg. 34
A model cannot forfeit its movement if it cannot move or does not have a movement available.

So it seems like they cannot forfeit to aim because they cannot advance?

Unable to advance does not equal unable to move, turning on the spot for example is not advancing but is still movement (thus removing the ability to aim). PPS_Jack said himself on the trollbloods forum that burrowers can aim.

Most likely they will just reword when they emerge to prevent this kind of confusion.

Not true. Advancing is all intentional movement, which changing facing is part of.

I've seen that PPS_Jack has said that they do get to aim, but the quote from pg. 34 (above) warrants an explanation as to why they can aim, I feel.
