Tackle and Diving Tackle combo

Post by Agentrock »

Had a quick question about the use of this combo:
Player A (who has Dodge) dodges away from player B (who has Tackle and Diving Tackle). Player B opts to use Diving Tackle to make player A fail the dodge...does player B get the Dodge reroll since player A has Tackle and is now prone?

The end-zone “line of death” does not discriminate when one tempts fate by using a “go for it” to pass over it.

He can't use dodge. I think there is a clarification somewhere, but I its a bit silly if they don't combine.

That's what I was thinking as well...but wanted to be sure before I took the Diving Tackle skill (I rolled doubles on a dwarven Longbeard).

I just wasn't sure if you technically have to be standing for the Tackle skill to work...
