    Default Gravus and (additional) impact attacks

    Gravus' special rule "Crusader's Requiem" says that

    I know that Gravus is able to boost his impact attack or damage rolls, but is he allowed to buy additional impact attacks? For example he charges model A and stops in between to make impact attacks against model B which happens to block the charge lane to model A. Gravus fails to kill model B with his (initial) impact attack and thus would have to end his movement in B2B with model B and afterwards end his activation. So is he allowed to buy additional impact attacks with soul tokens after his failed initial attack? The special rule "FOCUS: additional attack" clearly states "during combat action", but Crusader's Requiem refers to "during activation", so would this make it possible to buy additional attacks outside his combat action?

    No, you cannot buy additional impact attacks for the same reason that you cannot buy additional power attacks. Because additional attacks is a game term defined on page 49 of Prime Mk II.

    Well this clears things up I guess. I didn't have that paragraph on my radar, but I had the feeling that it was explained somewhere in Prime and that I simply cannot find it ;-)
    Thank you for pointing it out!

    Actually, he can't. Mount attacks are unboostable (cf. Prime, p. 81).

    Darn, that makes Gravus even more overcosted
    Well, at least we have ignite to bring his mount up to Khador standard-POW...
