Guest Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 If my unit/army has one of those rules that says they only ever lose a single model to failed morale, and they are in range of your unit which has an ability which causes failed morale to lose extra models, which has priority?

Guest Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 For example, the Fallen have: Quote In addition, fallen units can ever lose more than one model as the result of any single failed Morale test; Any additional casualties beyond the first are ignored. Further example, the Khorne Daemon Warlord Trait "aspect of death" Quote Each time an enemy unit failes a Morale test withing 8' of your Warlord, one additional models flees from that unit. So does the Fallen thing override warlord trait? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPaceORK Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Overall, I don't know. I would guess the more restrictive rule applies? In your example I would say the fallen rule applies and stops the warlord trait. Take moral. Fail, 1 guy runs. Warlord trait kicks in, 2 models flee. Fallen rules kicks in, says only one flees. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Honestly, I can see reasonable arguments for three different scenarios: Spork's scenario, where the Fallen rules overrides the other. The Warlord Trait is a separate effect from the Morale test itself, so that lost Model isn't subject to the "one Model per Morale Test" limit The Player whose Turn it is gets to choose which order they apply in, so if it's your turn, you would choose to apply the Warlord Trait first and then the Fallen rule to cap the loss at 1, but if it were on your Opponent's turn, they'd choose the opposite order to make the extra dude run away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its definitely 1 or 3. I'm actually inclined to think its 3. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Yeah, two feels like the least likely. I can't recall specific examples, but I know there have been other situations where the ruling ended up being basically number three.

VonVilkee Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 I like three more and more... other situations where caps and added top the test happen feel simultaneous. I really dig using the player turn interpretation of application (ie simultaneous resolution) to be a great compromise. I've been using it for other always and never situations. Psychic powers always first vs relic always last etc just let your rule apply during your turn! Cleaner and everybody gets their way occasionally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the most hilarious instance of that was Kharne vs. Invisibility in 7th Ed. He would hit on 2+ on his Turn, and 6+ on the Opponent's Turn! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 Wish it were more conclusive, but thanks for the help on this one. I just have 2 armies now that have a rule like the above (Fallen and Iyanden Eldar), so I figure I should know what to do if it comes up.

Purajh Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 I thought morale happened at the end of the round and not during a players turn. Would that not make option 3 null and void? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't gone to bed yet. I was also unsure due to being tired. I'm at that point where my eyesight drifts between clear and blurry.
