If a Sneaky git player fouls my Nurgle warrior ( use as an example Av9) with 4 assists and rolls double 3, he breaks Av, however I say he is sent off as its a double roll that results in the armour being broken, my opponent suggested that he thought it should not as the double roll did not break the Av, only when assists are added did the armour roll succeed. This would obviously make Sneaky Git a much better skill. Who's interpretation is correct?
This also lead to a discussion about assists, when I foul,at the start of the action I state " foul action with xxx assists" both offensive and defensive are stated so my opponent has time to agree, or usually point out my poor maths!! I then roll the dice, modify the results by the agreed declared modifiers and proceed from there.... Can you decide if you wish to use the assists after the dice roll? Are all eligable adjacent players compelled to assist?
Using the above example, my opponent may say " I'm not using the assists therefor double 3 fails to break armour, so my player is not sent off" I've always played that if you declare assists then they count whether you like it or not!!
Sorry to ramble on, it's was an excellent game and this was a relaxed discussion between to coaches who's interpretation of the rules diverged somewhere, not a heated debate ....
I did have a quick look but couldn't find the answers before posting, no doubt the first reply will be a link to a 15 page dissection of these points.....
