BUG: Units with the Melee Master ability can attack twice with a tree club #1487

Open Tamren opened 5 years ago

Tree clubs are supposed to break after one use, but when a pilot has Melee Master all melee attacks are doubled. It's current bugged where it will break twice, once for each hit.

I guess the intended behaviour would be for the tree club to break after the first hit and be replaced by a punch? Or perhaps two punches because it takes two working hands to use a club.

Waiting on rules check: https://bg.battletech.com/forums/supplementary-rules/melee-master-and-tree-interaction/?PHPSESSID=q54aqf0m56c80e5224v0i2k8iv

The rule check was never answered so I think we could just do what makes the most sense. Tree clubs only last for one strike, and you need two working hands to use a tree club. So if you use melee master to attack with a tree, the tree breaks after the first hit and the pilot uses their now empty hands to execute a double punch for the second half of the attack.

I’m on the rules team. Answer is still in review.

You'll get one attack with the tree and it will break. But melee master would allow a second attack (a punch).
