<ul><li> <u>General</u>
<ul><li> If you slam someone via a <b><a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Power_Attack" title="Power Attack">Power Attack</a></b> the distance they move depends on relative base sizes.</li></ul>
<dl><dd> If you slam someone via a <b>weapon or spell</b>, the distance they move will be as per that weapon's/spell's rules text. Sometimes it <i>doesn't</i> depend on base size.</dd></dl>
<ul><li> Obstacles stop slams, but they don't stop throws. </li></ul>
<dl><dd> Obstructions stop both.</dd></dl>
<ul><li> If three models are B2B and in a triangle formation, and you slam one toward the other two, it will contact both those two models simultaneously. (<b><a class="external text" href="http://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?259126-Slamming-B2B-models&p=3642466&viewfull=1#post3642466" rel="nofollow">Infernal Ruling</a></b>)</li>
<li> You can add model special rules (such as <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Gang" title="Gang">Gang</a>) to the damage roll.</li></ul></li></ul>
<ul><li> <u>Power Attack Slam</u>
<ul><li> You don't add any special rules on your model, unless it specifically refers to Power Attack Slam (such as <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Hard_Head" title="Hard Head">Hard Head</a>)</li>
<li> You can use an "any time" ability after resolving the slam movement but before the slam attack roll. (<b><a class="external text" href="https://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?279025-Slams-and-Spellcasting&p=3878232&viewfull=1#post3878232" rel="nofollow">Infernal Ruling</a></b>)</li>
<li> The range of a Power Attack Slam is irrespective of your weapon range:
<ul><li> A Power Attack Slam made by a colossal or gargantuan has a 2˝ melee range. </li>
<li> A Power Attack Slam made by any other model has a 0.5˝ melee range.</li></ul></li>
<li> You can boost the damage roll.</li></ul></li></ul>
<ul><li> <u>Weapon Slam</u> (ie <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Smite" title="Smite">Smite</a>)
<ul><li> You use the weapon's full P+S, not the attacker's base STR.</li>
<li> You can add weapon special rules (such as <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Weapon_Master" title="Weapon Master">Weapon Master</a>) to the damage roll.</li>
<li> You can boost the damage roll (and if you charged, it is auto-boosted).</li></ul></li></ul>
<ul><li> <u>Dual Attack & Slam/Trample</u> ( <a class="external text" href="../index5d37.html?title=Template:RC_Dual_Attack_%26_Slam-Trample&action=edit" rel="nofollow">Edit</a> )</li></ul>
<dl><dd> Power Attack Slam and Trample combine your Normal Movement and Combat Action, and how this works with Dual Attack is:
<ul><li> Slam: You must resolve the movement, the attack, and moving the slammed model. Only then can you make initial ranged attacks.</li>
<li> Trample: You must resolve the movement, the attacks, and the free strikes. Only then can you make initial ranged attacks.</li>
<li> (<b><a class="external text" href="https://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?279324-Timing-of-Dual-Attack-and-Slam-or-Trample&p=3880746&viewfull=1#post3880746" rel="nofollow">Infernal Ruling</a></b>)</li></ul></dd></dl>
<ul><li> <u>Incorporeal vs Slammed/Thrown models</u> ( <a class="external text" href="../index2d3b.html?title=Template:RC_Slam_%26_Throw_%26_Incorporeal&action=edit" rel="nofollow">Edit</a> )
<ul><li> Incorporeal models cannot be moved by someone trying to slam them.</li>
<li> Slammed models can move through Incorporeal models.
<ul><li> If they have enough movement to get past them, no dramas.</li>
<li> If they land on them, you move the Incorporeal model out of the way as per the Rule of Least Disturbance. </li>
<li> If the Incorporeal model cannot be moved (i.e. it's a flag) then you move the slammed model out of the way, also by the rule of Least Disturbance.</li>
<li> For the purposes of Collateral Damage, only the model(s) you contacted <i>before</i> you applied the rule of Least Disturbance count as contacted.</li></ul></li>
<li> The same logic applies to Throws.</li></ul></li></ul>
<ul><li> <u>Collateral Damage</u>
<ul><li> Collateral damage cannot be boosted and is not considered damage from an attack or model. Refer page 33 of the 2021.08 version of the rules pdf. As a result:
<ul><li> It doesn't trigger stuff that relies on being hit by an enemy (such as <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Shock_Field" title="Shock Field">Shock Field</a>) or damaged by an enemy (such as <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Vengeance" title="Vengeance">Vengeance</a>).</li>
<li> It doesn't get bonus damage from stuff that adds to a model's damage roll (such as <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Signs_%26_Portents" title="Signs & Portents">Signs & Portents</a> or <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Prey" title="Prey">Prey</a>).</li>
<li> It doesn't matter if the attacker has crippled weapon systems or aspects.</li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>
