If you have plasma cannons in a squad with a psyker with prescience power, can those plasma cannons re roll the scatter die. Twin linked has a special rule about blast templates but does re rolling to hit also allow it?

If you only get to re-roll To Hit rolls then you cannot re-roll the scatter dice.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

I disagree with Happyjew.

Blast Weapons and Re-rolls pg. 33
"If a model has the ability to re-roll its rolls To Hit and chooses to do so after firing a Blast weapon, the player must re-roll both the scatter dice and the 2D6."

Nothing about that limits it to twin-linked, having the ability to re-roll "To Hit" regardless of source, works for Blast weapons, and re-rolls the scatter dice along with the distance.

Interceptor Drones can disembark at any point during the Sun Shark's move (even though models cannot normally disembark from Zooming Flyers).

And that is what I get going off the wording for the Farseer variant and not checking the rulebook. D'oh.

Note that having re-rolls to hit also conveniently allows you to re-roll Gets Hot, which is a very nice thing.

I thought that for Plasma Cannons or other Blast and Gets Hot weapons the Gets hot roll was separate from the Roll to Hit. Is there some interaction or expection that I am missing?


With Plasma Guns and other non-blast and Gets hot guns, you for sure get the re-roll as the to hit roll is also used for Gets Hot.

Read all the way to the end of the Gets Hot rule.
