    Hello.

    Can someone please walk through the process of how the “Movement Worm” interacts with Sensor?

    Do you activate it at a particular point or is it active for the entirety of your move enabling you to sweep with a Sensor Worm for example a 4” movement range and a 8” ZoC sweep.

    Say what?

    Someone decided they can use Sensor - an Attack - for the entire duration of their Movement?
    I thought any Attack took place at a specific point of your Movement. The exact point was for the attacker's to choose, but the entire attack had to be perfromed from that single point.

    I am not sure what the movement worm is, but if it is what @Errhile said then as he said, it cannot be done.

    Movement Worm is the simplest explanation to visual a unit's movement. As the unit moves during an order it creates a worm like shape.

    Hey! Can you please point me to this rule? I can find references for position in BS Attack and restrictions on declarations for attacks, but I cant find something for performing under the general 'Attack' label. Thanks!


    In general, I think most everyone plays this rule as occurring in a single position.

    ZOC is measured from ANY point along the path and not EVERY point along the path.
    Simply put, you can not be everywhere all at once.

    But you do occupy every space along your movement path for that order. Also ANY can mean EVERY. You could measure ZOC from every point along the path and be within the rules and guidelines.
