I tried searching but could Not find the answer easily.

If a model with feel no pain takes multiple points of damage from a single attack, say 6 pts for example. Does it get to make 6 feel no pain rolls or just 1. The debate was over the terms damage vs wounds.

Thnx,

You make 6 rolls, one for each point of damage.

A: Roll to avoid each wound lost separately.

For example, if a model with Disgustingly Resilient fails its saving throw against an attack made by a thunder hammer (Damage 3), you would roll three dice and for each result of 5+ you would ignore a single wound.

Unless there is some obscure rule, most of the "Feel no pain" or similar rules who allow to ignore wounds in a result are resolved per wound inflicted so you need to roll as many dice as Dmg the weapon causes, and substract the sucess from the total damage.

So if you are wounded by a 6 dmg weapon you roll 6 dice and substract the 5+ (let's say you roll 2 sucess) so you take just 4 total wounds.

There are exceptions graia from adeptus mechanicus is one role when the model is slain that negates all.damage.

The vast majority are one dice per damage.

To be fair, the Graia doctrine is not technically an Ignore Wounds rule.

Page 95 – Graia: Refusal to Yield
Change the first sentence of rules text to read:
‘Roll a D6 each time a model with this dogma is slain
or flees – on a 6 that model refuses to yield; either that
model is not slain (and has 1 wound remaining), or that
model does not flee.’

bummer is they come back on one wound - even if multi-damage killed them. I was disappointed too.

Well gak looks like i have been playing this rule wrongly (too my detriment, pox walkers took too long for me to kill!)
