modifying dice twice?

Recommended Posts

Based on the first and second post of the OP, I wonder if this has been addressed correctly?

Specifically:

"I haven't found anything in the rules that prohibit this and the closes refrence to modifying dice more then once is under modifying dice in the RRG it specifically says that you CAN roll a die more then once.

So is this legal? Did I miss something? "

I'm about to use this combo and note that I am not rolling anything.  The H9s allow me to **change** a hit or crit into an accuracy and Warlord allows me to **change** an accuracy into a hit-hit.  So I am 1) not re-rolling any dice and 2) not "spending" accuracy but rather **changing** it.  In other words, both effects (H9 and Warlord) occur in the Modify Dice step.

Also, on page 5 of the RRG under Effect Use and Timing, bullet #8 allows the controlling player to resolve the effects in any order.

So, combined with Screed, even if I roll blanks, provided I roll more than 1 die, I am guaranteed 2 hits on one attack (Screed kicks in only once per activation).

Somebody please correct me if I am wrong.

Yes thats all correct

under modifying dice in the RRG it specifically says that you CAN roll a die more then once.

 

Does this mean that if one were to use Darth Vader or Ordnance Experts said one could re-roll the die infinitely until the desired result is acquired? If so, what's the point of re-rolling? Wouldn't it be better to simply change the face of the die to the desired face?

You can't use them individually to reroll multiple times, because they have the "While" trigger...  Which means, you can do it once, and can't do it again "for that instance", which is "that attack"....

 

 

So, With Darth Vader, you can Reroll a Die once (if you spend the Defense Token)...  But even if you want to spend more Defense Tokens, too bad...  You can't....

 

With Ordnacne Experts, you can Reroll a Die once if it is a Black Die.  And you can't reroll with Ordnance Experts, because that's a no-go....

 

 

 

 

With BOTH Ordnance Experts AND Darth Vader, you can Reroll the Dice TWICE.  Once with one, Once with the Other...  And hell, again, if you give up another Die and ahve Leading Shots.......

 

The craziest seems to be:

Reroll with:

Darth Vader

Concentrate Fire (Token)

Ordnance Experts

Leading Shots

So, one die, one lonely little black die, Rerolled Four Times if you wanted to...........

Can I modify my dice more than once?

This question came up as we were discussing warlord in the other thread basically the scenario is warlord + h9 turbolaser

Roll a hit/critical h9 modifys to a accuracy and then warlord modifys back to a double hit.

It also works against squadrens to make a garenteed hit every squad attack

I haven't found anything in the rules that prohibit this and the closes refrence to modifying dice more then once is under modifying dice in the RRG it specifically says that you CAN roll a die more then once.

So is this legal? Did I miss something?

There, now I've quoted him so he'll see it when he gets back.
