Combat with vehicles

[SergeyStark]

Hi! 

This was the situation yesterday - Palpatine attacked Droidekas. 

 

1. Is that possible to move Palpatine in base contact with both models in one move? Since there's no engage state with vehicles I assume that's legit.

2. If Palpatine comes into base-to-contact with a non-leader Droidecas and inflicts 4 wounds (the droid does not save), the unit is left with only a droid leader with 1 wound. Since there was no engage - would Palpatine have to spend movement to melee attack the remaining leader, since he is not in base to base contact? or what? And the same situation, but Palpatine comes into base-to-base with a unit leader, what would happen?

You can move into base to base contact with two miniatures from the same unit (which in your example, it sounds like he did). You cannot move into base to base contact with two units with a move - it doesn’t matter what type of units they are.
 

So if you were asking about moving into two separate Droideka units, the answer would be no. If the Droidekas are from the same unit, the answer is yes.

If Palpatine defeated the non unit leader, he would snap to the unit leader. If he started in contact with the unit leader, the non-unit leader would not snap to him and would be defeated first, leaving him in base to base contact with the leader droideka. 
 

Hope that helps!
