Do the bonuses gained from the Jokaero stack? Also, if an independant character, such as an inquisitor, who potentially gets the +1 to armor, so he has a 2+ retain that if he leaves the said unit?

Need a little more info on the scenario your asking about?

Well for example,

I have a detachment of inquisition, with Coteaz, Xeno Inquisitor w/ Power Armor. I attach them to the henchman squad consisting of 3 servitors, and 2 Jokaero weaponsmiths.

I roll on the Jokaero's special augmentation table, toll a 3 and a 6.

The 3 gets +1 due to there being two of the Jokaeros. So it's +1 armor to him and the unit. The 6 allows an extra re-roll. SO I do and get another +1 armor, and the one that gives him and the unit Rending.

Do the same bonuses stack if possible, like the armor, and if I detach the inquisitor will he keep the 2+ or go back to 3+?

Hope that helps

Having read it over again I would say yes it would stack up to a 2 +. As for whether the IC could keep it that I'm split on. The wording says the warband unit. Once the IC leaves he is no longer a part of the unit, so I would think he would loss it if he leaves.

The rules governing this situation is in the Multiple Modifiers rules.

These are found in the Models and Units chapter, Multiple Modifiers section.

This is the rule:

Inconceivable Customisation: When an Inquisitorial Henchmen Warband containing
one or more Jokaero is deployed, roll a D6 on the following chart. Each time you roll, add +1
to the result for each Jokaero in the unit beyond the first. All results apply for the duration of
the game.

They can never stack since the second space monkey will just give you the +1 on the roll instead of the extra power

Note that if you are always rolling a 6+ due to too many monkeys you get no bonuses and that the 7th edit rulebook doesn't allow better saves then a 2+

Don't you also have to ignore duplicates?

yes

6 - The Works: Roll twice more on the table and apply both results. Each upgrade
can only be applied once – ignore duplicate results (including further rolls of 6).

Which is only in effect when you roll a 6 and get (for example) two 4s afterwards. So no double effect on the same jokaero. Doesn't say anything about two different Jokaeoras with the same result.

Which you cannot have in the same unit as 2+ jokero still only roll once.

Oops, missed that part. Haven't used them before.

*edit* nevermind

You can only roll 1 time, with 2 monkey's? I thought you could roll twice...

I feel like a bozo. haha

Well technically you can never roll twice - either you roll once, or you roll once, get a 6 and roll twice more for a total of 3 ;-)
