hi there,
I'm sure this has already been addressed, but it's not that easy to search through all the ghazghull topics. anyway I was playing with a friend and he came up telling me that in a tournament he played in ghazghull had a 1 turn waaugh. To explain it better, because the translation might add problems, the rule says that his waaaugh lasts for "the remainder of the player turn and the following player turn". he told me that this is talking about 2 different players so the waaaugh lasts for, let's say, my second turn and my opponent's turn, while I was interpreting it as my second turn, my opponent's second turn and my third turn.
also, I am italian and as previously mentioned the codex translation rly sucks, though I've not been able to determine whether he's right or not just having a look at the english codex. what do you say?

Hi Miedomeda,

Ghazghkull's waaagh can NOT be used on TURN 1.

It lasts the remainder of your turn and the following player (usually opponent) turn. Basically during your turn it's good for the automatic 6 movement and the fearless USR. And during your opponent's turn you benefit from all your squads being fearless.

Indeed, it only works for the Ork-players turn and the opponents following turn. Ghazghkulls save is also invulnerable during this time

So miedomeda, last time you played against me you cheateeeeedddd!!!!!!!111!!!!

Nvm me and miedo are friends and it's normal for him using dirty tricks against me.


Jokin' again

I haven't used ghazy yet so I'll go check my dex in 30 minutes to be sure, but i think you can call his whaagh on your opponents turn too (to get the invulnerable save when it's actually usefull), that's why it's worded like 'next 2 player turns'.

No, you can only WAAAGH! during your own shooting phase.

...No, you can call Ghaz's waagh at any time outside the first turn.

And the turn does indeed refer to player turns, and does so specifically in the English version.
So you call it on your turn, it lasts through your opponents turn.
You call it on your opponents turn, it lasts through yours.
It never lasts for more then one of your turns.

"Ghazghkull's Waaagh! can be summoned at any time, but only once per game, and not on the first turn"

Ah, my mistake. I don´t have the codex handy and I was assuming it worked like a regular waaagh. My bad.

Hell, you can call Ghazes Waagh Halfway through your opponent shooting at you

You can call it before you have to roll the dice for a ld check forced by shooting casualties and be fearless and pass ..>.> his waagh is pretty awesome
