Hey just checking, when i use my bosspole to re-do a failed moral test, can i take a save or is it an AUTOMATIC wound, i know it says take a wound, but I'm not sure if i can save it or not?

it is wound, before it can become an un-saved wound you must take a save and FNP if you have it.

The only time you would not get a save is if it tells you to ignore a kind of save (like dangerous terrain) or tells you to remove something as a casualty.

From memory the Ork FAQ covers this.

You take a wound, but like all wounds you get to take a save against it unless told otherwise.

As the others said. It's a wound, and it doesn't specifically say that it ignores saves, so you get saves as normal.

And yes, the Ork FAQ does specifically cover this (and rolling a 1 for Waaagh distance).
