So the crimson crown allows khorne daemons an extra attack on wound rolls of 6. Possessed have death to the false emperor so hit rolls of 6 give them an extra attack. My question is this, if I roll a 6 to wound I get an extra attack, if I roll a 6 to hit with that attack do I get an extra attack for death to the false emperor? Obviously that last extra attack won't be able to make extra attacks from either rule.

Say you roll a D3 and get a 2 for number of attacks. You roll both dice and get two 6s, roll two more attacks because of DTFE and get 2 more hits. You then roll to wound and get 4 6s which gives you 4 more attacks. With those 4 attacks you roll 4 6s to hit and get 4 DTFE attacks and roll 4 more hits. That's 8 additional hits, and 12 hits in total when you started with 2 attacks.

Is that correct?

It's important because with prescience and the black legion warlord trait you can get DTFE on 4s and with veterans of the long war wounds of 5+ will give extra attacks, which will gain extra attacks on 4s because of DTFE

Thanks

Each additional hit cannot generate further hits.. So as long as you keep track of your first round of attacks and any bonus attacks separately, should be ok?

I don't think bonus attacks from DTTFE can then go on to generate bonus attacks from TCC, as the wording of the rule prevents this. Likewise for the crown attacks , they cannot generate DTTFE attacks.

Each 6 you roll on your D3 attacks will give you two additional attacks, one from DTTFE, one from the crown. Thats it, no more additional attacks, even if you roll 6s on your additional attacks.

Both rules have a clause saying that extra attacks generated cannot generate extra attacks themselves. It is important to note that they don't specify the source of these extra attacks, so they cannot generate extra attacks from ANY source.

This is why, as stated above, ONLY your initial attacks will be able to generate any extra attacks.

Potentially, but this is literally the only situation where both hits and wounds generate extra attacks so they wouldn't have bothered to word it saying 'generate further attacks from this rule.' It's important to me as I run a lot of possessed in my armies but I don't think it's a big enough issue that they'd put it in the FAQ coming up

Crown is extra attacks on wounds not hits mate

Oh, ok. But the result is the same.

It doesn't matter what rule generates the attacks I'm afraid, the current wording is very strict. The extra attacks cannot themselves generate extra attacks from anything in any context.
