Since when are D3 and D6 Mortal Wounds considered as single mortal wounds? (Other than when you roll a 1)

Sounds to me like GW wrote the rules with those in mind, but neglected to factor in the 1 wound sources.

Since the beginning of the edition. If you do d3 mortal wounds and roll a 3, that's 3 mortal wounds that do 1 damage each. Not 1 mortal wound that does 3 damage. The rules are clear that a mortal wound always does 1 damage.

This is important if you have an ability that reduces damage. If it halves all damage rounding up, this never had an affect on Mortal Wounds because 1 halved and rounded up is 1. Doesn't matter if you roll a 3 because it's 3 lots of 1.

Why is this even a thing? sounds like a moot point made just for the sake of creating debate.

you know how to allocate them, you you know they go nowhere when everything is dead.

Whats the point in this thread again?
