so heres the skinny, and i just want your opinion, guys
Assault Centurions come with TL flamers. however in an Overwatch situation, would the TL allow a re-roll for the d3 Wall of Death to be re-rolled?


ive looked but found nothing to concretely allow or disallow, and thought id spark discussion.

Personally id say 'Either/Or': Either rerolling the d3 Or rerolling wounds.

Twin-Linked flamers re-roll to wound. Seems pretty straight forward to me.

Considering you may apply Twin-Linked to Overwatch, there is no reason why it would be limited.

Just remember, you have to be happy with your second result.

When i read the title i assumed it was a thread stating how they never make it to assault.

Assault Centurions are slow and purposeful, therefore they can't fire on overwatch while being charged.
ATM it's a bad bad unit.

another missing FAQ - meganobz suffer from the same problem: with 'overwatch' being so effective on so many '6pts' a head troops slow and purposeful is a real extra nerf to what are essentially close combat units; i think -2" to run [which they cant do either] and the ability to overwatch if they didnt fire in the previous shooting round would be an effective mod.

As others have pointed out Centurions are Slow and Purposeful, so do not receive Overwatch attacks.

Any other unit with a twin linked flamer would not re-roll the number of hits inflicted by the Wall of Death from a template weapon firing overwatch, but rerolls to Wound
