Today Darrell has a look at being stupid, and what happens when model with the stupid rule walks up to an enemy modle and is in base contact with it.
I wonder if Darrel has the same rule…

Stupidity isn’t rolling 1D6 and a one gets you a failed roll. Stupidity is a Ld test done on 2D6. If you fail the test, you stumble forwards the 1D6
Yeah tricky question. I’d say either they stop 1 inch away or they fight a combat but do not fight.
jesus darrell… did you just come off of a bender!?
While Darrel may appear to be hung over and he hasn’t read the rules for stupidity I believe he has ‘stumbled’ onto the correct answer by making it up –
They test for stupidity before movement (inc charges) and id say f they make contact then they have charged the unit but that the enemy cannot make a charge reaction (like when being charged by random movement models) but that the stupid models cannot attack as they are allowed no further action that turn.

Lastly, if you did go with them having charged, then there is nothing saying that they can’t attack in close combat because it specifies that they cannot charge/make a shooting attack/generate power dice/cast spells. (Although, I guess it does specifiy… Read more »

Have no idea what the new 8th edition rules say about stupidity but i remember in one of the older editions it said the affected unit simply sits down on the ground and picks grass… they can take no other action [including movements] but they can defend themselves. This rule works well so why did they go and change it?
