Very quick and probably stupid question but when you take the Wound characteristic do you take the wound value from the datasheet or the "modified" wound value if the model was wounded?

Would a wounded character/unit/vehicle/... with 4 wounds left out of 6 be killed instantly on a 5+?

Thanks.

Unknown until GW clarifies it.

It says wound characteristics not wounds remaining

not sure how that could be confusing.

if there was to be any confusion it would be when a unit has multiple wound characteristics. (which IIRC off the top of my head wound be the TFC im sure there are others)

Oh noes, I feared I would get this answer. Ahah

My friends just asked me about this one and I didn't know which way I should support. Guess we'll go with the weaker variant for now since so far my call on Drones Saviour Protocol and such went in the same way as GW and they were all the weaker interpretations.

No confusion there either, as it's covered in the FAQ
