Hi all, a couple of friends were playing the mission The Armory, OSS vs TAK, and during deployment one of the Netrods ended up on the roof of the Armory after a dispersion roll. Since the roof is considered to be of infinite height, what happens to the Netrod? Since it's an IA Beacon, if it ends outside of the game area it gets destroyed, but is this the case? Or we should just position it in contact with the closest wall, on the outside? Or inside the Armory?
While checking around I saw that in the Wiki it says: Combat Jump and AI Beacon If a trooper with the AI Beacon Special Skill (see Infinity Human Sphere) suffers a Dispersion while attempting to use AD: Combat Jump in its Deployment Phase, and that Dispersion takes it out of the play area, consider that trooper lost as a casualty for Retreat! and Victory Points purposes. The point is if the roof of the Armory is a "play area" or not.
There is no 'roof' to the Armory. But it's 100% part of the play area, or your troopers wouldn't be able to enter it!
@Koni The question's been answered. My presence will only upset the community. Can we lock this thread now? Or should I post a different opinion on the topic to really heat things up first?
Exactly, my doubt is based on the fact that the roof itself is not a "playable area", while the Armory is. Thanks for the advice tho, I guess we'll place it in base contact with the closest wall!
