A3.1 & A4.431 May a leader transfer a SW in the Rally Phase and then attempt to rally

[Aaron Cleavin]

How about an MMC can it receive a weapon by transfer and be deployed by a leader?

Probably not but the Q&A doesn't lock out the possibility. In what sense is the transfer "Free"?

I think you are still limited to one action in a phase. (exception - a leader can attempt to rally more than one unit).

So, I don't think you can do two things in the rally phase.

A10.6: Broken units on both sided may attempt to rally during any RPh if a Good Orded friendly leader is present in the same Location.

...which makes me think that "rallying" is an action of a broken unit. Leader is just present and influences but doesn't do any actions. This can explain better the "exception" mentionned: if there are many broken units in the Location, all them can be "rallied by single leader" (since they do nothing, actually).

If I'm on the right track so far, I cannot see anything wrong with the initial sequence: 1) leader does an action (for instance, transfer an SW), 2) broken unit does an action (rallies with the leader presented).

Another question is who's action is "transfer"? Donor's or acceptor's or both?

There's Q&A on this :

A3.1 & A4.431£ - May a leader transfer a SW in the Rally Phase and then attempt to rally one or more units?
A. No.

Per last sentence of A10.6, "one leader may attempt to individually rally all the broken units in his Location." My read of this is that it was a necessary rule because without it the leader could only attempt one rally phase action, i.e. rallying one unit. The rallying of a unit is an action by both the leader and the broken unit.

Is receiving a SW an action? (If so what does "free" mean)?

It means you can transfer it without restrictions. It doesn't mean you can pass it around without it "costing" an "action". Think of a Platoon "freely" passing around a Prisoner in the context of how you are thinking about it. -- jim
