Was playing my first apocalypse with my shokk attack gun. We get first turn. And what did I roll? Snake eyes. Then I rolled boxes for the explosion. He, 10 grots and runtherd, 10 lootas, and a nearby biker were instantly gone.......

My TLAC dread always seems to suck. between the autocannons and the storm bolters, I usually kill a stray Troop here and there. Bikes? Nope. Fire Warriors? Uh-uh. AV10 Skimmers? Nada.
Does OK in CC sometimes, but usually a waste.

10 man Scout sniper unit with Telion Objective Camping. Down comes a BA Sanguinary guard unit with FNP (I think because within 12" of an Apocathery), lots of rending shots, 0 Kills, whole unit wiped out in hand to hand next turn.

To glimpse the future, you must look to the past and understand it. Names may change, but human behavior repeats itself. Prophetic insight is nothing more than profound hindsight.
It doesn't matter how bloody far the apple falls from the tree. If the apple fell off of a Granny Smith, that apple is going to grow into a Granny bloody Smith. The only difference is whether that apple grows in the shade of the tree it fell from.

FNP gets ignored by anything that ignores armor. Rending wound rolls of 6 ignore armor.

Neither actually, just didn't roll an 6's for the sniper rifles that hit or wounds for Telions Stalker Bolter...So therefore they were normal wounds, (as they only become rending on a 6 for the sniper rifles) so he was able to make the FNP roll as they are normal wounds , granted they wound on 4+ regardless of toughness.

Right, figured when you said lots of rending shots, you meant some of them were rending.
Love the Baldur's Gate profile pic btw.
