radens Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I always thought that Warptime let you reroll failed "to hit" and "to wound" rolls. But I have heard an opinion that you reroll ALL dices, meaning that if you have 4 attacks and hit with 2 of them and wish to reroll, the you must roll all 4 dices again. The description of Warptime is: "... the psyker may reroll all rolls to hit and rolls to wound for the entirety of that player turn." ALL being the keyword here. So, any clarification?

Spacefrisian Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 You are missing a word in the sentence 1 word before the "all" The keyword is actually MAY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radens Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 ok, I MAY reroll, but does that mean that I may reroll missed hits or all the hits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPetersson Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I don't know if it's been FAQed but I would say that it sounds like yes, you would have to re-roll all the dice, but its your choice whether you do so. The gods of the warp are capricious and their 'gifts' are not always helpful... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Sentence diagraming for the win! What can you do with the dice? You may reroll the dice. How many of them? All of them. Do you have to reroll all of them? no. But you can if you want to. Generally speaking you can reroll any number of them unless it specifies otherwise. Ive never heard anyone try to argue you had to reroll the entire batch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radens Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 So what you suggest is that I can reroll even the succesful rolls, for example when I dont want to end combat and that is the reason why it is worded like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Yes. Its odd, and its not what people intuitively go for, but its not an unknown practice. Many rules say 'reroll failed X'. If it doesnt specify like that then its open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thade Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Shame on you all! You OR vets should remember this debacle :) This appears in the Grey Area rules. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=165112 That said, I am still on GM's side here; it says "May". Be nice to Chaos, their current codex is a pale shadow of their former might. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dswanick Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Yeah, if you're playing Grammarhammer 40,000 - you may re-roll all (or you may re-roll none) hits or misses, otherwise it would say any. If you're playing a normal game in the normal world, I would say re-roll any or all hits or misses as you decide. But that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
