Ok now I just need someone to explain this..

Example: A Blood Slaughterer can use a Impaler Harpoon to stab a Rhino and pull it to them. To do this it rolls "2D6" to see how far the rhino gets dragged toward the BS. Ok now I understand the term "2D6" that means roll 2 6 sided dice . Now I assume you either pic the highest dice number or add the number together.

Now when a BS assaults instead of "+1 attacks for charging" it gets "+D3 attacks". Ok whats that mean? Do I roll 3 dice and add them together or pick the highest of the 3 to find out how many attacks he gains.

I do applogize for not understanding, any help is appreciated.

Thanks guys

A D3 means that you roll a D6 and cut the number you get in half, rounding up.

Ergo, a
1-2=1
3-4=2
5-6=3

For example, say a Bloodslaughterer attacks, and you roll a D3 for your attacks. If you roll a 4, then you get 2 attacks for charging instead of just 1.

I'm pretty sure it's in the rulebook, I'm not sure where though.

And 2D6 means you roll 2 D6's and add the value together-just like a normal leadership test

Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.
