or

The bonus Pass Block movement follows the rules for standard movement.

simple,
you still do not see the movement modification added to the skill and probably never will
again:
BLACK & WHITE from the skill description
Apart from this, however, the move is made using all of the normal rules and skills
and the player does have to dodge in order to leave opposing players’
tackle zones.
the modification to the movement rules in written into the skill description.

the BBRC could have made it simple
"the move is made using all of the normal rules and skills" (taking out the additional modification of dodging)

I understand the "normal " rules for movement, what I do not understand is why the rules for PB added the modification to the normal movement rules:
"and the player does have to dodge in order to leave opposing players’ tackle zones."

I drop it here because it is a mute point with you

As someone who's done playtesting for a major tabletop company, he's right Galak - at the very least it's weak wording and arguable, which you don't want.

Isn't this a moot point? (not a mute point as someone above thinks...) I understood that the wording was all finalised and submitted to GW.

Regardless of how important you feel this issue is, if it can't be changed then you should have found it earlier.

Actually Galak & I agreed to revise the wording to make it less confusing so the final edition indicates that dodges are examples of normal movement.

Or you could clarify the ruke in a nice FAQ bit at the back of the rule book like there is at then moment.

Q. Do i have to dodge out of a TZ when using PB if i use leap?
A. No. Leap allows you to leave a TZ without dodging.

One would hope that the finalised nature of LRB6 would not exclude the addition of a short FAQ in a couple of months if such a document was thought necessary. Not that Granny has a very good rep in that area.

Is this true?

If it is then I hope the Dump-Off skill text was edited as well (in red): "... and Dump-Off cannot be Pass Blocked."

Also the FAQ question that is red on page 61 would need to be revisited as well.

wasted hope, since Pass Block text reads "Players with Pass Block may use this skill against a Dump Off pass."

A. No. Leap allows you to leave a TZ without dodging.

but remember, Leap can only be used once per turn, so you won't be able to use it in your own half of the turn.

Huh. Both coaches don't share turns, they get 8 each per half (before modifications). So if I use Leap in your turn, I still get to use it in mine.

so
- I can use Leap in my opponent's turn, and thus I can't in my subsequent turn
- I can use Leap in my opponent's turn and then I can use it in mine
- I can't use Leap in my opponent's turn.

which one is correct?
