Hello Dakka,

I´m playing Orks and I just wondered how the ammo runt worked with gets hot weapons like the kustom mega-blasta or mega-kannon. He gives the model the option to reroll a single failed to hit roll. Now you can also reroll the gets hot dice if you have the option to reroll failed hits. So my question is, how does that work with the ammo runt? Can you reroll gets hot? And if yes is the ammo runt removed from play after that? Can you still reroll your scatter dice if you used it in the same turn to reroll the gets hot roll? Can you reroll gets hot as often as you want as long as you have one ammo runt? Do you have to remove the ammo runt after a succesfull rerol for gets hot? Can you reroll gets hot but not the scatter dice if you rolled a direct hit for example?

Yes you can Reroll, once you choose to expend the runt.

1/ I believe that if you roll a "1" on the Get hot roll, the shot is autofails, it does not go off so no rolling of the scatter dice at all

2/ so yes if you reroll the Get hot with the ammo runt (and succeed) then you get to roll the scatter.

3/ whatever roll you can ever reroll only once.
Whether you reroll successfully or not the Get hot roll. You cannot re-reroll it again, and yes you remove the ammo token.

I guess the remaining question would be: if I want to reroll my scatter dice, do I need to roll the Get hot again (knowing that it succeed the first time)?

Due to being specifically stated that if you have an ability to re-roll to hit, you can re-roll the gets hot roll when you fire blasts. So, you spend a runt and reroll gets hot.

I think you don't need to reroll gets hot cause it happens befor rolling a scatter dice.

If you hit and don't like the scatter, and wish to re-roll the scatter for a got, then I would say that you have to re-roll the to hit as well.

you don't roll a "to hit" if you're using a Scatter.
