TheDVoid Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I am currently building a list for my army and after having recently got my grubby mits on copys of Badab 1 and 2. There are two character I have devloped an intrest in, Lias Issoden and Ahazra Redth, the Chapter Master of the Raptors and Chief Librarian of the Mantis Warriors. Lias Issoden has the Cunning Strategist which gives your opponants a -1 penalty on their reserve rolls, Ahazra Redth has the Wispers of the Wind special rule which has the same effect. I am unsure but do these two special characters special rules stack resulting in a -2 penalty to reserve rules or not? Any assistance in this matter would be immensly helpful.

Ming Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I have similar thoughts about stuff in the BA codex stacking....increasing I and A and WS and such to greater heights.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Rules quotes would be preferred; most of us don't have the books! :cuss Otherwise, there's no precedent. Some armies with an ability like this do have them stack, some don't. Dice off is the only answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyroknight Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 On a similar note: Does the Grey knights psychic power "Hammerhands" stack with itself? I know it stacks with the librarian power because it says it does, but I could not find anywhere that said that Hammerhands stacked with another Hammerhands.

DarkGuard Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 On a similar note: Does the Grey knights psychic power "Hammerhands" stack with itself? I know it stacks with the librarian power because it says it does, but I could not find anywhere that said that Hammerhands stacked with another Hammerhands. BRB FAQ: Q: Do the effects of the same psychic power castmultiple times on the same unit stack? (p50) A: Yes, unless specifically stated otherwise. So yes. As to the reserves rule, it's debatable. We have precedent for some things stacking (psychic powers), and other things not stacking (Nid Hive Commander). But then The Grey Knights psychic communion stacks, although that is a psychic power (which is totally unfair to Nids and another case of GW trying to drive the final nail in the Nids coffin)..... OK, I'm calm again now. Basically, I'd call this (the reserves question) grey area, discuss with your opponent. There's instances of this stacking and not stacking, so discuss it before game to avoid an argument and ruined battle midgame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDVoid Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 I appretiate the input you guys have given on this, and I'll talk to futer opponants on this. I thought it best to ask because I play against alot of Blood Angels and Dark Angels who both at the moment are opponants who rely heavily on deep strike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
