Does a deff rolla still get to make D6 hits even if the unit its attacking makes it's leadership? It was explained to me that it does but the rules really don't seem to suggest that.

Not only does it get to make the d6 hits, if they make a death or glory they take a second d6 of hits. Look at the FAQ for confirmation on the second d6.

From the FAQ:
Q:If a vehicle with a def rolla Tank Shocks a unit which
subsequently passes its Leadership test and elects to move out of
the way, does that unit still suf er the D6 Strength 10 hits even
though the rulebook states the unit lets the tank move through ‘as if
it were not there’? (p85)
A: Yes.

As above.

Deffrollas ALWAYS do D6 hits. Then if the enemy does a Death or Glory attack it does an extra D6 hits.

The Chaos upgrade works the same way except it doesn't do extra hits if a DoG is attempted IIRC.


The Deffrolla needed an FAQ badly and it got one.

Its understandibly confusing if you only are looking at the codex.

Destroyer blades? I believe they do. They're only S5 though.

Front Armor 14, you're not going to see that happen though unless they've got a meltagun or a Chainfist.

Thanks everyone!
