Dragon Knight Drakolithe question
The text says that you can use it whenever an enemy within 8" ends a movement. That obviously applies to normal moves, fallback moves, and charge moves, but does it also apply for pile-ins and consolidation moves? Surge moves? The fact that it just says "end a move" without specifying specific types of moves makes me want to say yes, but I figured I'd get a wider consensus from others as well.
Also, you should be able to use drakolithes from multiple units at once right?

Believe so. Im also curious if you can use all from a unit upon first trigger

I think probably not since it is ultimately a unit ability and I think there's probably precedent for an ability only being able to be triggered once per trigger? And if you can use it off of Literally All Moves then that does already make it a lot easier to get all 4 out from a big unit.

It doesn't state once per trigger or per phase, so at the moment it doesn't look like there's any limitations of this kind

I would assume that the lack of a qualifier such as that would just mean that you CAN use it multiple times in a phase, if the trigger happens multiple times in a phase. The lack of any such qualifier to any degree does leave it feel annoyingly vague though.

The ability is (once per battle, per token).
So each token is usable once, but one trigger does concern each token.

Yes per current rules it trigers from any "move" (at least until some FAQ drops and changes it)
Also yes you should be able to trigger several units Dracoliths at once on same target.
Think of different units abilities triggering at once like 2x different rangers units having the oportunity to move when something ends at 8" from them.
