can Diving Tackle and Prehensile Tail be combined?

DIVING TACKLE and PREHENSILE TAIL be combined to give a -3 modifer on jumping out of he tackle zone.

I seeing in my vision:

a kroxigor with Diving tackle and Prehensile tail and Tackle skill.
He is fast enough to follow the ball carrier, and to big block at when he besides the ball carrier (specialy if the ball carrier has ST2). way to dangerous to jump away from, and when its his turn he will hit them with his mighty blow.

It require a normal skill roll and a double.
Next skill for him is maybe break tackle.

Yours sincerly
Brian

Nah, sickening is a Rat Ogre with Tentacles, Diving Tackle and Tackle.

Dont forget his 4th advance foul appearance so they cant try to block their way out lol.

And maybe add some glue as well, so the opponent's coach can't reclaim the mini!

Don't forget to give your Krox the following as well: Block, Dodge, Sidestep, Shadowing and +2MA

.

That brings up a good question I'd like confirmation on. Can Prehensile Tail be an optional skill to use? All skills are optional, right? Like Kick and Standfirm.
Sometimes you WANT to let players dodge away from your Wild Animal Rat Ogre so you don't throw double skulls at the start of your turn... AGAIN!

Yes, it's optional. You don't have to wrap it's tail around the opponents leg.

um if he doesn't dodge away cause you used prehensile tail then he falls over anyway so still won't be there

Grumbledook: Yeah, but you could promise the opposing coach that you won't use it. Remember that he's getting away from a 2 dice block with Mighty Blow.
