In 8th edition fantasy and 40k, there are rules saying a roll of 1 always fails. I have my sword eternals hitting on 3s, +1 for their special rule, +1 for celestant on foot command, so now they hit on 1+. Does this mean that no matter what I roll I hit, since I can't find where it says 1s fail.

Yes, auto hit is a thing (just like auto-save is a thing now too)

Nothing in the rules say you can't autohit, autowound, autosave.

We as a group ruled that 1's always fail on Saving throws, and you can't stack Mystic Shield. But that's us. Play how you like.

....and lo!.....The Age of Sigmar came to an end when Saint Veetock and his hamster legions smote the false Sigmar and destroyed the bubbleverse and lead the true believers back to the Old World.

40K does not have a universal rule that says a roll of a one always fails.

Indeed. Certain rolls have had this stipulation, but it was never a blanket rule IIRC.

8th edition Fantasy allows for auto hitting and auto wounding, and for automatic failures to hit or wound. See the Ka'dai Destroyer pre-nerf.
