Subject: Gets Hot! Re-Rolls, Does it work with Ammo Runts?
|

So the new FAQ on how preferred enemy doesn't affect the Gets Hot! rolls on Blast Weapons has got my group riled up since it's made things like Leman Russ Executioners way too hazardous to use without prescience or other forms of twin-linking. I just wanted to double check to see if this applies to Kustom Mega Kannons even if they use up an ammo runt, since under the Gets Hot! section for weapons that do not roll to hit, it notably states "it may also re-roll Gets Hot results of 1 for weapons that do not roll To Hit". Although it's only one use, Ammo Runts do you say you get to re-roll to hit with the shot you missed/scattered with so as far as I know they seem to be still worth taking on KMK batteries.

I would say it does work because it re rolls everything when used.

According to the DraFtAQ, no Ammo Runts would not work, since Gets Hot is not a To Hit roll.
Of course this goes against the wording for Gets Hot and may change when they (eventually) release the final FAQs.

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.

So since it doesn't directly address its contradiction with the Gets Hot! section on Blast Weapons its a coin flip on which one I would follow? I guess technically the FAQ takes precedent.

If you disregard the DraFtAQ (which is still a draft), then any re-roll ability (shooting at Preferred Enemy, BS 6+, Ammo Runts, etc) allows the Gets Hot roll to be re-rolled.
If you play using the DraFtAQ then nothing works since there are no abilities that allow you to re-roll the Gets Hot roll (only To Hit rolls).

Ah, I see what you're getting at now. Thanks! Since we're going by the FAQ's in general it means I'll have to put up with my grot gunnerz getting fried. More crew for them I guess!
