In order to uset GMA from a TBSV do you have to be within 6 squares
a) at the beginning of your turn
b) at the end of your turn
c) at the point of attack
d) for the whole turn
e) at the beginning and end of turn
f) at the beginning of turn, end of turn, and the point of attack
g) some other combination I haven't thought of
The strangest situation I was thinking of (haven't encountered) would be where you want to move around someone to avoid an AOO, so while moving you step outside the 6-space range for the CE, but you are within range at the beginning of turn, at the end of the turn, as well as in the middle when you pause to attack, but not for the entire turn.

I believe at the point of the attack, because that's when you technically attack (and be within 6 squares)

MAINEiac is correct, you check for GMA right when you're about to make the attacks.

The answer is G)none of the above.
You would check for the Vigo's CE at the point in which having Greater Mobile Attack would be required to do the desired action.

Some examples:
If a character with GMA and double attacks and moves, they are using Greater Mobile Attack at the beginning of their move, not at the beginning of their attack.
If a character with GMA moves, makes one attack, and moves again, Greater Mobile Attack would trigger at the point they resume movement.
If a character with GMA moves, uses Double Attack, and moves again, Greater Mobile Attack would trigger at the point they make their second attack.
Basically Mobile Attack and Greater Mobile attack trigger when you diverge from what you would normally be able to do.

Basically Mobile Attack and Greater Mobile attack trigger when you diverge from what you would normally be able to do. Does "begin your move" happen at the place where you start or the first space you move into? If it's the place where you start, then the position where you do something you aren't normally able to do is always the position where you make your attacks, because you'd either attack in the place you attack begin your GMA move in the place you attack. I understand your point, though.

I understand your point, though. You begin your turn the second you take action with your figure, when you activate them. The first action your mini takes is when you begin that characters turn. & your character would begin its movement in the first square he starts off in. Think of it like this, a character without Mobile / GMA, wouldnt be able to move 1, & then attack & move again, because you would need either Mobile or GMA to do that, so if you character attacks in the squad he starts in, then thats where it begins its movement.
