I often seem to forget Living Battering Ram on Carnifexes, Mastery Level 2 on Psykers, and Psychic powers in a turn. What Special or Non-Special Rule do you forget the most?

Banishment. There are plenty of games when I suddenly think 'Wait, Sanctic should have a Primaris, shouldn't it...?' when I'm planning my psychic phase.

Balanced Game: Noun. A game in which all options and choices are worth using.

Rolling for reserves. Since I generally play everything as is on the board whenever I run a dakkajet or outflank deffkoptas once in a blue moon I forget to roll for them until usually turn 3 or 4 to my detriment.

My friends very often forget to shoot with the bolters on their space marine vehicles, and I forget to do beginning of turn special rules like Zahndrekh's warlord trait stuff in the new Necron codex or the Swarmlord's special rules that he can give to a unit from the Tyranid book.

Leadership tests. Its just such a mess with the whole one third thing and all the other pointless nonsense. I've heard nothing good about the rule and I think it is in dire need of a rehaul. At least Age of Sigmar has an entire phase to remind you that you have to do the whole morale thing.

I'm glad they removed rolling for nightfight on turn 5 because if I didn't remember to roll for it on turn 1, I sure as hell wouldn't remember to roll for it turn 5.

I always forget rerolls that have been granted by the mysterious objective thing. What's it called, the ammo cache or something. And the scatter field cover save.

I think "Fear" is the most often forgotten rule.

Myself I often forget Warlord Traits especially if they're weak.

The truth. No one plays with NF.

I always forget the Tactical Doctrine gained from having a Gladius. I'm used to only the smurfs being able to use them.

2. Mysterious objectives.

3. Don't press that.

Mysterious objectives (both rolling for them or remembering what the rolls were).

I'm pretty good with morale, which is good as many space marine players seem to think ATSKNF is fearless without the drawbacks!

Once we forgot NF, so we rolled for Night on the 5th turn. Fortunately, we got day, so the game continued as normal.

Night fighting and reserves. When I run bugs I forget to keep my dudes I'm synapse range. Not often, but when I do it oddly doesn't matter much. I AM the Hive mind because I can confidently say I've failed synapse tests maybe a dozen times out of 50+ games.

Also forgot that I almost always forget roll for force and when I run BA I don't think I've ever remembered that Sang Priest gives +1 WS
