Spawn Blocking

[Dxx]

I'm not sure if this is possible so I wanted to ask. I believe it is legal to place your units on their spawn points, but can they use an Action die to move your unit one space or can that spawn point just not be used?

And if that spawn point just cannot be used, wouldn't that be a smart strategy against someone who uses many units?

Yes it is perfectly legal and valid tactic. There might be better options more often, but you can certainly do it.

If you do this your oponent has to spend 1 action (white) die to "bump" the unit off the spawn point. They can bump them to any adjacent square the unit can legally occupy. For instance, a unit without a suitable movement ability could not be bumped onto a water tile. Units can be bumped into hazards though, which kills them as normal.

Once the unit has been bumped, the spawn point can be used as normal.

That's what I thought. Thanks for backing me up EA

FAQ - Replace the first full paragraph with the following: “If a unit or
morpher occupies one of your spawn points, you can spend 1 action
die to move it into an adjacent space it can legally occupy in order to
spawn a unit on that space.”

Keep in mind you must use the Spawn Point you just cleared. You cannot bump a figure off the Spawn Point just to do it.
