Says"...If the test is failed, the formation additionally retreats D6"...".
Does the "retreasts" mean "Fall Back"?
Which means the formation could be destroyed while it couldn't make a full distance fall back move because of the obstacles on the way?
thx~

Since it does not specifically mention 'fall back' our group takes it to mean that you are pushed back in the same way as you are for shooting and some other spells. So if you can't move, you just stop. YMMV of course.

If it is 'fall back', then Gandalf the Grey seems even better value than he already was!

lol fall back would be imba, although GW seems to like making different mistakes all the time... the mumak has that imba rule already :P

The rule is the same as with driven back with shooting. So just read it as written.

Mumaks aren't so bad, well now that I know not to stand in front of them anyway! viewtopic.php?f=2&t=19564#p223420

Being always visible to spells and shooting is a serious liability. Once you are rolling on a table with enough dice, the 6s happen, and they add up quickly with all the tokens that accumulate. Basically, you get a Mumak death-spiral.
