SevenPlagues Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 The Scryerskull Perspectatus lets us select an enemy vehicle on the battlefield, and Skitarii and Cult Mechanicus units re-roll Armour Penetration Rolls. How does this interact with Vehicle squadrons? Does it apply vs. the entire squadron? Does it apply versus a single vehicle, that we may select? How do you guys play this? I appreciate this is a bit of a rules-question, but I figured I'd go straight to the source in terms of people who may actually often use this Relic and have some experience with it. Thanks comrades!

Carlson793 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Because it refers to a singular vehicle, and not a vehicle squadron or unit, you can only get the benefit against one vehicle in a squadron/unit.

SevenPlagues Posted March 20, 2016 Author Share Posted March 20, 2016 This would require rolling each shooting attack's armour penetration roll separately then, no? How would re-rolling armour penetration versus only one vehicle in a squadron work? I can't think of an analogy to any other rule interaction.

DeStinyFiSh Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I can't see a problem scanning the vehicle outfront and rolling with rerolls until it is destroyed, then keep rolling the remaining hits on the other vehicles without rerolls.

SevenPlagues Posted March 21, 2016 Author Share Posted March 21, 2016 I agree, that would be easiest. If the vehicle I wished to target was in the rear of the squadron though (I am thinking specifically the DA formation where it is 3 Land Speeders and 1 Darkshroud as a single vehicle squadron), I'd have to do it one hit at a time until I got to the one I wanted, I guess? I guess there aren't that many vehicle squadrons comprised of different vehicles, now that I think about it...

MagicHat Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 According to the rules for vehicle squadrons, you must roll every hit separately anyway.
