Breath Weapon and ASL
Breath Weapons are used in melee at your own initiative. What happens if the user has a Great Weapon? Is the Breath resolved at normal initiative before the normal attacks, or do you wait with the Breath Weapon to later?
Re: Breath Weapon and ASL
Only the great weapon gets ASL. The model's I remains same.

Unless the unit has always strike last as a default, I'd go with the Initiative.
Although would that mean if one has a breath attack and always strikes first would it still be initiative order?

A breath weapon is not a regular attack so would always be at Initiative regardless of ASL or ASF no?

I was under the same impression, just checked the rule book pg.67 "an additional close combat attack at it's own initiative"
Re: Breath Weapon and ASL
Breath & stomp are never modified with special rules.
IIRC, that's in FAQ.

Re: Breath Weapon and ASL
Breath Attacks not being modified by other special rules was already in the rulebook.
FAQ added that to stomps/tstomps.
