If I were to say...roll a 9 on the warpstorm table and get Khornes wrath where it would place a blast on one of my units would I place the blast marker or would my opponent?

If you could also reference somewhere that confirms and clarifies this then that would be great.

Thanks

What does wording on the warp storm table say?

It just says 'for each un-engaged unit... place the blast marker'. You place the marker yourself, whether it's for an enemy unit or a friendly one.

Along the same lines...do you roll towound your own stuff if you hurt it? Or does the opponent roll? It probably doesnt really matter but it is something that seems to go either way. Any official answer to this?

Unless the Rule state your opponent does X, or more likely stating your opponent's Model/Unit does X, it is an action you complete during your turn.

The closest your going to get to a 'Rule quote' on the matter would be the section explaining why the game is devised up into Turns in the first place, titled The Turn and found at the start of the Core Rule section. Within it will explain that the Game Turn is broken up into two Player Turns, primarily in order to separate actions of one player from the actions of another. While it does not elaborate on this in depth, it does sets the foundation for when actions are carried out by each player. For your opponent to carry out any action during your turn they will require specific permission for them to do so. Otherwise, they need to wait for their turn before they can complete any action as it is not yet... well, their turn.

As the Warp Storm Rule occurs during your turn, and mentions nothing about your opponent completing any actions, permission does not exist for them to take over actions that you would normally do.

However, Don't the rules on templates require that they are placed to cause maximum casualties? In line of sight of course. Whether you are placing them on your models or your opponents. Unfortunately, you cannot use this rule to get out of causing damage to your own units.

The rules for templates do. The rules for Blasts don't have anything of the sort

IIRC, in the case of Perils, it tells you to center the template over a specific model (generally the one provoking the Peril).
