Hi all, When a unit carrying the 'blasted standard' suffers multiple hits from a single round of shooting (eg Dwarf organ gun), do they roll a single D6 covering every hit, or do they roll separately for every hit?
In the example, the unit suffered 8 hits, and I thought the wording indicated it needed a roll for each hut, but he argued it should be a single roll covering all hits:
"Each time the Bearer, or his unit, suffer a hit from a shooting attack, roll a D6 immediately before rolling to wound. On the roll of 2+, the strength of that hit is halved. However, if the result is a 1, the strength of that hit is instead doubled."

I am assuming sonofkurnos means "you roll separately for each hit," in which case he is correct. After all, his answer could be read either way...

So 8 Leadbelchers all roll max shots and then they all hit. Before rolling to wound you would need to roll 48 dice to determine the strength (sorting out the 2+ rolls and the 1s)?

Yes, just like you might have to roll 48 dice to Wound, then for armour saves, and, ultimately, for ward saves.

The reply in my head made more sense! Said the epitaph...
