So my DoM uses its Spirit Leech ability at the beginning of every shooting phase. All enemy units within 6" take a Leadership Test on 3D6. If the test is failed the unit suffers a wound for every point it faild by with no saves allowed. How does this work with the Ork's Mob Rule. Say I spirit leech a unit of 20, can they make their leadership 20 and in now way fail the test? The Ork FAQ says the Weirdboy caps his LD at 10 but is that the same for all other Ork Mobs?

Leadership Value can't go up above 10.
Only stat that potentially can go above 10 is Attacks.
Everything else (ignore saves..) cannot go above 10

**spongemonkee**

They are LD 10 and fearless if 11+ models are in the squad.

**nosferatu1001**

Their Ld value is capped at 10, as the Ork book contains no exception to the basic BRB rules on characteristics.

**Jidmah**

It was even FAQ'ed

Q. Can a Weirdboy’s Leadership be increased to more
than 10 by the Mob Rule? (p31)
A. No, it can be increased, but only up to a maximum
of 10.

Just remember that Wounds can't go above 10 either

Tankbustas are UGLY against Nids.

Actually they're ugly anyway, they're orks, but VS Nids the negative rules they have don't apply
