1) I have a group of 10 space marines. 6 of them are killed. They fail their Morale test.

Are they:

A) Never able to regroup as they are below 50%. <---- This seems to be the answer as answered in the other thread
B) Able to regroup next turn


2) I have a group of 10 space marines. 3 of them are killed. They pass their Morale test.
Next turn, 3 more are killed. They fail their Morale test.

Are they:

A) Never able to group as they are below 50% of their original 10 man strength. <---- This seems to be the answer as answered in the other thread
B) Able to regroup next turn as they are not below 50% of their existing 7 man strength.

And They Shall Know No Fear allows Space Marines to regroup even if under %50; subject to not having an enemy unit close enough (6") to keep them broken or not having fallen off the table edge in the previous fall-back move..

Life isn't fair. But wouldn't it be worse if Life were fair, and all of the really terrible things that happen to us were because we deserved them?

Space marines are a special case. ATSKNF always allows them to regroup as long as there are no enemies within 6". They are never subject to the 50% unable to regroup rule.

A in both cases.
Barring any special rules (its not just marines than can re-group under 50%)

Then they would continuously fall back each turn because they are under 50% strength and would never regroup.
