Area Weapon

A weapon with a yellow range icon () is an area weapon. When using an area weapon, perform a separate attack against each unit that is in line of sight and at the range indicated by the number on the range icon.

• Area weapons can be used only through abilities and other game effects that specifically allow the use of area weapons.

• Area weapons are usually associated with a charge or condition token, and are used when that charge or condition token detonates.

• Attacks made by an area weapon are ranged attacks.

• Ranged attacks made by area weapons are performed against each unit at range and in line of sight, even if that unit is engaged.

• An area weapon cannot be in the same attack pool as another weapon.

• Area weapons cannot be added to an attack pool during an attack made by a unit.

• Other weapons cannot be added to an attack pool with an area weapon already in it, including other area weapons.
