Gen. Confusion Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Hi all. I have a question about Njal Stormcallers Lord of tempest Driving Gail. The codex says that "enemy models within 24 inches are at -1 BS this turn" my question is, does this ability cause any snap shots to automatically miss or does it just prevent them from happening? I know it says some where in the BRB that models with 0 BS can't shoot. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/257507-njal-driving-gale/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalachiOfRuss Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 No, read the section on Applying Modifiers at the beginning of the book (not sure what page exactly, don't have it with me). Modifiers are applied as follows: 1) Apply multipliers 2) Apply pluses and minuses 3) Apply "fixed values" So the -1 BS gets applied to their normal BS, but when they Snap Fire the BS 1 gets applied "last" thus overriding all other modifiers.

I know it says some where in the BRB that models with 0 BS can't shoot. you apply modiifers first, and then set values. As a result,t he unit would be at -1BS and then immediately reverted to BS1.

MalachiOfRuss Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Ok cool. Thanks guys. On a related question. Do tau marker lights work in the same fashion? Yes. If you are reduced to BS 1, you cannot increase that by Mark Lights.
