Hi All,
I think my friends and I might have been getting something quite elementary wrong.
In close combat, if I have a 'nid with rending claws and 3 attacks on it's profile, how many of those attack dice are subject to rending rules? We've been playing it as only one die is subject to the auto-wound on a 6 to wound.
Similarly, if (for the sake of the example) he has an assault marine sarge with a normal close combat weapon and a power fist, that's one die at normal initiative for the CC weapon, and one die at initiative 1 for the powerfist, right?
We're used to 2nd Ed. rules, where everything was worked out with a lot less abstraction!
