Does an Warboss get S10 on the charge?
A Warboss has a base strengh of 5.
If he purchases a power klaw, that strenght is now doubled to 10.
With the furious charge bonus, that would be +1 to strength, resulting in S11.


Would he attack at S11?!?!?!
I don't think he would, considering I've never seen a S higher than 10.
Although, it does not say any where in the BRB that you cannot exceed 10 (or does it?)
If so, then I have robbed my Orkish friend of an extra stregth for the last 2 years, making me a jerk.

no. it says clearly in the rulebook that a statistic may not be over 10.

RAW - quote "for all models space vehichles these characteristics are given a value on scale from 0-10. the higher, the better"

0-10 means 10 is the top, so I'm afraid w/s10 furious charge isn't going to provide.

hope that helps,

- PS I'm sure a certain leniancy amongst normal players means you could play a s11 model at some other cost, but generally for simplicities sake, keep it at s10.

GL and I hope all rolls are 6's.

Thanks.

Yeah traditionally it caps out at 10 (barring Strength D from Apocalypse), but I'm not sure RAW supports it.

The S11 is not a characteristic he's given, it's the result of simple arithmatic (S5x2+1=11). Yeah the fact no one has a stat over 10 and the charts end at 10 implies that's the top but without a firm bar I'd say it's gray.

Page 6 again:

Rulebook, page 6 wrote:However no modifier may raise any characteristic above 10 or lower it below 0.

The only time imho that a characteristic can go over 10 is when it comes to Attacks, other than that it caps out at 10 even if you could get higher.

Bonus attack. The Basic Attacks stat still cannot be higher than 10, you can however have it higher than 10 from bonus attacks (Like that Khorne weapon that gives 2D6 bonus attacks).

Well, and Armor Value.
