If your Xenotech is being escorted by a model that has frenzy and who then scores a wound, becoming impetuous, does the Xenotech also act in the impetuous phase or is he left behind while the model runs off? rules say that you can't escort a xenotech if you can't use synch civ, and you can't use synch civ if: It possesses the Impetuous or Extreme Impetuous Characteristic, or it possesses the Frenzy Characteristic and has become Impetuous. so when the civ was synched at the beginning of the game, the escort was a legal model, but later violates the condition to sync future civilians. my take is that the civ would act in impetuous phase, but if unsynced could not resync with the civilian, does that seem correct?
I can't find anything that says you cancel CivEvac State once it has been successfully activated by becoming Impetuous, so the Civvie would run along all crazy-like, I'd say.
I think this is a thing they just missed? @HellLois To me, it seems they wanted to avoid units with impetuous to being able to be synced with a Civilian. So in my next active turn I would play them as being de-synced. Even if there is no rule who tells you to do it that way.
Bumping this in hopes of a CB staff reply. In almost every other instance, becoming impetuous cancels something that being impetuous forbids (see Cybermask, for example.) I can't think of any other game states that you can't enter while impetuous that aren't cancelled by becoming impetuous.
Until CB themselves rule otherwise, you have it correct Pr01yfic. Becoming impetuous is not a cancellation clause of the CivEvac state, so they will remain synchronized until something else changes that. The civilian follows the rules for G: Synchronized units with Impetuous controllers.
