    Hi Guys. After re-reading the rules and attempting to find existing answer on forums I'm still unsure how the following situation resolves:
    Wild Bill wants to attack Gata, Gata is in LOS of Hannibal but as a result of implacable Maximus moves to completely block Hannibal's LOS. Will there be a possibility to add an extra orange die to Wild Bill roll according to Hannibal Pointmen? I can not find whether calculation of amount of dice rolled is part of requirement gathering step of Attack sequence or some other step

    The experts in Spain should be active at this time but I will attempt to answer. Both "Pointman" and "Implacable" are Automatic Skills and apply at all times. However Will Bill is the Active character and Hannibal is his Ally so the player with Wild Bill declares his attack and Hannibal supports with the extra :,:. Only then will the enemy Maximus have the option of displacing one square. Whether or not his new position blocks anyone's LOS the requirements for the Attack have been met and the Attack proceeds. However if Maximus is now adjacent to a character that receives :4: he may suffer it instead from the Automatic Skill "Get Behind Me"

    That's absolutely right and correct.

    The quote that you posted inbrain and what -V- just clarified from Roadrunner are exact opposites though! Roadrunner says that attacker gets :,: because they get it on attack declaration, whereas what -V- quoted says attacker doesn't get :,: because during roll check, LoS is blocked

    Adding dice to your roll happens after Max's displace. -V- is right
