Hey there, so I was checking out for some agripinaa addittion to my army, and came to this; does the cognis overwatch gem override agripinaa trait, ironstriders hitting on full ballistic skill?

I mean obviously the intent is for the stratagem to take precedence [Woop Woop Heretical Thought Alarm]. I think the RaW supports the stratagem taking over too.

The Agripinaa Trait modifies all overwatch, while the stratagem is more specific and applies only to a specific set of weapons.

Since the game simply has to use Specific overrides General for literally anything to work, the Stratagem takes priority.

So an Agripinaa model using the Stratagem would use their BS for Cognis weapons, and hit on a 5+ for their non-Cognis weapons.

LOL, yeah I guess that was pretty obvious. Nowadays have to keep making sure about rules.
