So a question came up in our game tonight regarding Harlequins and assaulting someone in cover.
A librarian was in area terrain, and was assaulted by 5 harlies. We were unsure if the Harlies went on iniative 1, or on their normal iniative.
Harlies have flip belts, which ignore difficult/dangerous terrain. So one would think they attacked on normal initiative. HOWEVER, when you look at the Shadowseer upgrade, he gives the squad hallucigen grenades, which count as frag grenades for assault purposes. This would lead me to believe they attacked on initiative 1, because what would be the point of gaining hallucigen grenades if they already discounted the terrain penalty.
We rolled a d6 for the time being, but does anyone have an official answer?
cheers
