I had two beast zombies bearing down on me. I was playing Special Forces. My Humvee was gone. My support guys were gone. All I had left was a NCO carrying an M-4 with underslung grenade launcher. Both Beasties got a little too close together… hit them both with a well placed grenade shot. Then I managed to do it again the next turn… bye bye beasts.

I get the rule, you can be forced to re-roll a re-roll in the given circumstance. But page 8 rule needs to identify this as a possibility right away, not wait until page 29 to state that this rule can be broken.

Another oversight by whoever wrote the Strike on Kar’a Nine Start Here book… there is no mention anywhere what happens if you fail a command roll (auto DOWN order). Had to look in the main rulebook for the answer. Not good for a getting started book.

Oh and the Kar’a Nine book it is easier to understand about re-rolls… it completely skips the “no re-rolls of re-rolls” rule. So you know right from the start that it can happen.

HardBack rulebook page 8:
“As a general principle, when re-rolls are allowed or necessary the re-rolled result stands and cannot be re-rolled again. So, even where a test might be entitled to a re-roll for two or three different reasons, only a single re-roll is permitted. In other words, you cannot re-roll a re-roll”

Hardback rulebook page 29 it pretty much breaks the above rule by saying if you have any “re-roll misses” do this before being forced to “re-roll hits”.

So if you have a spotter drone you can re-roll a miss. Say for example you roll 2 shots at a DOWN target. you get one hit and miss once. The spotter lets you re-roll the miss, lets say you hit on the re-roll.
Now because you are shooting at a down target you are forced to re-roll your hits. This would require you to re-roll a die a 2nd time. Once that miss became a hit the DOWN order forces a 2nd re-roll of the SAME die… which according to Page 8 rule is not allowed,
“only a single re-roll is permitted. In other words, you cannot re-roll a re-roll”.

I get that this is a “special” circumstance. But the Page 8 rule needs to more clearly state that you can only “benefit” from a re-roll once, and that does not affect any “forced” re-rolls you may have to make.

Re-rolls question.

It specifically says you cannot re-roll a re-roll for any reason.
But there are several examples of getting to re-roll a to hit roll that misses followed by being forced to re-roll successful hits…
If you have already re-rolled the missed to hit dice how can you be forced to re-roll success? The dice have already been re-rolled once…
I am so confused.

I just yesterday bought 3 copies of Kara 9 (and a C3 Transport drone and 2 extra boxes of AI squads). So I don’t know when my next purchase will be, but I am sure it will be some Support Weapon teams for both armies.

Good day all.

I am not really a long term player of Warlord Games. Played a dozen or so games of Bolt Action and absolutely fell in love with Project Z.
Now I have started up a Beyond…Antares project. C3 and AI.
One of the best things I like about the Warlord family of games is that they lend themselves well to solo play.
I have a hard time interacting with others face to face, I know pretty bad for a hobby geared more towards social settings. But with BA, BtgoA, and even Project Z I can get in my gaming fix with or without another player.
