Yes, I would, because the rules as written allow you to do so.

That's like asking "Would you allow my flamers to ignore cover saves?"

Or like asking if Spore mines are removed when they explode.

I presume that you also have no problem with me placing a dice on the table with a 6 on the side and "rolling" it over until the "6" is on the top for my dice rolling yes?

Only if you do not mind me doing the same of course.

Of course, that isn't actually rolling the dice...

I have in fact rolled the dice that is all the book requires me to do.

It would make a pretty dull game I'm guessing. Presumably you'll also let me take save throws from sweeping advance and power weapons as the Rulebook categorically states that Codex trumps rulebook?

Please show me where it states this outside of:
Smoke Launcher Rules
and
Summary

Both of which apply ONLY to those specific areas of the rules.

Also I just want to Point out something:
Gwar! : Wants to have a fun game while following the rules.
FlingitNow : Wants to make all his dice 6's by "Rolling" them to the 6 Side.

And I am the one who is vilified.

Go figure.

Wow, no it does not. really, it doesnt.

What it ACTUALLY states is thst whne the rulebook AND the codex have the sme named rule, that whatever the codex says takes precedence. The only other time is the rules for the summary table at the back.

Yeah you're right I re-checked on the codex vs rulebook thing

Gwar! : Wants to have a fun game while following the rules.
FlingitNow : Wants to make all his dice 6's by "Rolling" them to the 6 Side.

Not true though is it? I want to play the game within the spirit and intention it was designed in you want to argue semantics in worship of your go RaW...
