My friend and I got into an argument on how it works can anyone explain for us

It gives the unit a bonus to WS (I think) and allows the bearer to re-roll a few things.

Could you be more specific

How does the re-rolls work. Do I get a fresh reset of rolls in every phase such as up to three to hit and wound and save?

The description in the codex seems crystal clear to me.

As many rerolls as you want every turn, but if you fail, you are removed from play. Pretty clear to me as well.

Codex is pretty clear but here it goes.
+1 WS to unit(does not stack with waagh banner)
You get as many 're-rolls as you want per turn for failed to hit, fail to wound and saving throws but if you fail 3 of the re-rolls toubare removed as a casualty with no saving throws of any kind allowed

Player turn or game turn?

If the rule says "Turn" then it's Player Turn.

It doesn't specify. It merely says turns. It would seem to be player turn.

This is one thing I hate about 40k, is they use the same terms too often for different things. Players should be taking 'turns'. The game should be taking 'rounds'. Once each player has taken their turn, that ends round 1 of the game. You play 5 rounds, with the potential for more if your mission has the roll off for a round 6. That way the Lucky Stik would be clear. Or they could simply have stated 'per player turn' or 'per game turn' instead of leaving it ambiguous.

Melevolence,
As I have ranted many times over the duel-use of terminology, so I will agree easily.

I agree that they need to clean up their terminology but the rules are clearly stated in the rule book that a turn is always a player turn unless otherwise stated.

Just remember that you can only reroll every roll once.
