Greetings all,
I have just satrted fiddling with the new Grey Knight codex and I am trying to figure out if the Weaponsmiths are as good as they look on paper. Now my question is that they say each time you roll on their Inconceivable Customisation table which to me implies that you roll for every weaponsmith in the unit. Am I correct in assuming this or is it a wierd typo that will proberbly be erratered soon?

You roll once for each unit with 1 or more Jokaero in it.

Violence isn't the answer, I just like getting it wrong on purpose.

You roll for only once for each henchmen warband containing any number of jokaero, but you are less likely to actually get an upgrade the more you have.

7 Ork facts people always get wrong:
Ragnar did not win against Thrakka, but suffered two crushing defeats within a few days of each other.
A lasgun is powerful enough to sever an ork's appendage or head in a single, well aimed shot.
Orks meks have a better understanding of electrics and mechanics than most Tech Priests.
Orks actually do not think that purple makes them harder to see. The joke was made canon by Alex Stewart's Caphias Cain books.
Gharkull Blackfang did not even come close to killing the emperor.
Orks can be corrupted by chaos, but few of them have any interest in what chaos offers.
Orks do not have the power of believe.

Not true. IIRC someone calculated that you'll have the greatest chance of avoiding getting no upgrades if you have exactly 2 Jokaero in the same unit.

Then this someone is correct. For some reason I started counting at two of them, while one would be a possible choice, of course...

Sanguinus: The "for each time you roll" bit is becasue if you roll a 6+, you roll 2 more times on the table; if you have more than 1 jokero(say 2 or 3) and you roll a 6+ on the first roll you will still be applying the +1(or 2) to your second and Third rolls.

Jimdah+Walrus: yes 2 is the "sweet-spot" it increases your chance to get 2 rolls to 1/3, and negates any chance of rolling a "1"(chart result, not Dice total). Three can also be effective if you want to increase your chances to get 2 rolls, but you also then increase your chances of getting nothing on at least 1 of those extra rolls

This is my Rulebook. There are many Like it, but this one is mine. Without me, my rulebook is useless. Without my rulebook, I am useless.
Stop looking for buzz words and start reading the whole sentences.
