Now I know that if you have poisoned weapons you get to reroll to wound rolls if your strength is equal or greater than the toughness of your opponents models. I was just wondering if you get to reroll if you get a bonus S from Furious Charge. I'm assuming that it would work, just wanted to see what others thought on the subject.

Yes, absolutely. An example is hormagaunts with adrenal glands and toxin sacs. The toxin makes them wound on a 4+. When they charge they are S4 because of the FC and will get to re-roll their wound rolls against a T4 target like marines in that assault phase.

Thats what I figured, just wanted to make sure

Running an Archon with a Venom blade nets you nearly 2 kills against MEQ. That's because of the +2 to wound. If you throw in a charge and 2 pain tokens...wow. I'm guessing you're looking at an easy 3 kills. The only thing that even comes close is an agoniser, but you loose the benefit of +1S from FC if you use one instead.

Care to explain your math on that?

6 attacks on charge, 4 hits, 4 wounds gives 1.33 wounds vs MEQ. Not quite 2...vs an agoniser which DOES kill 2.

Meh...previously I got 1.85 for kills. Now the math comes out to 1.27....
