A small rule's question:

With the universal special rule chaos have to re-roll break tests does this allow you to effictivly re roll the result 3 times if the BSB in range?

(if this question makes no sence dont worry(only asking as my freind says you cant re-roll re-rolls))


Thanks

I was going to say No Way because I seem to remember a rule saying you couldn't re-roll dice that have been re-rolled. Unfortunately I am unable to find the rule in the 7th Edition rulebook. The closest I found was in Spellcasting saying that a wizard that can re-roll a dice cannot re-roll that dice again for that spell.

So I decided to read the rule from the Warriors of Chaos book.

Units with the Will of Chaos special rule always get to re-roll failed panic tests.

Now Panic Tests are the following:
25% casualties during Shooting or Magic Phases.
Friendly unit destroyed within 6 Inches.
Friends break from Close Combat within 6 inches.
Fleeing friendly models moving through a unit.

Notice that break tests from combat are not included in that list.

So no you cannot re-roll a break test from Close Combat unless you have a BSB nearby and no way will you get to re-roll a re-roll because Will of Chaos doesn't cover break tests.

I hope that helps you.

Bilbo, I'm pretty sure you're right. I dont have my rulebook with me but I'm pretty certain you can NEVER re-roll an re-rolled dice.

Let me be the one to DEFINATELY tell you that you cannot re-roll a re-roll! Never. It's in the book. Really.

Actually, the WoC FAQ introduced the only re-roll of a re-roll and that's on the Eye of the Gods chart. But it's the exception that proves the rule!

okay thanks for the help

Dude what are you on about, there is no universal rule that says Chaos must re-roll break tests.

But even if there was, you can never re-roll a re-roll.

My mistake its panic tests they re-roll due to every unit having "the will of chaos".

every unit has it apart from spawn, hellcannon, dragon ogre shaggoth and the giant

Fair enough then

The Nauticans are unique in that they're the only army that allow re-rolls of re-rolls !



only joking

I wouldn't dare !

Ya, I bet all your critics would verbally slap you in the face over the internet.

That would be hilarious.
