I use Thane of the Retuine to give my SW Grey Hunter sergant the Morkai's Teeth relic.

Anyway, I started blasting. Does the timing of the bolts mean that the sergant cna buff his own squad?

Would love to help, but don’t know those rules, can you quote the relevant rules?

The wonders of modern science.

Since the unit would all be firing their bolters at the same time, it would not effect any of the bolter attacks.

It would possibly effect any other weapons the squad fired after the bolters though, such as a thrown grenade, or plasma gun they might have.

There is no requirement to "fast roll" attacks. You do have to resolve attacks by weapons with the same profile against the same target before moving to a different profile or a different target, but these can be resolved one by one if you prefer.

Targets are declared before attacks are resolved, but as each attack is resolved individually, I see no reason why Morkai's Teeth Bolts can't be used to benefit its own unit if it is resolved before the other attacks.

Unless I've overlooked something that says otherwise in the Rare Rules section FAQ/Errata?

Only if you "fast roll", which you are not required to do (and the rules themselves are explicitly written under the assumption that you are not fast rolling and following the actual attack sequence), so you can fire the Pack Leader's bolter first just fine, the same way you can fire a T'au Markerlight first to benefit the rest of the guns in the squad.

Morkai bolts are a different profile if used so you can't fast roll it with the others

Target declaration being at the same time is irrelevant

If it fires first the benefit occurs

Shooting does not happen at the same time. Otherwise it wouldnt be possible to kill a transport with a lascannon, and shoot the bolters at the disembarked unit. Nothing in 40k happens at the same time. If two or more rules would be resolved at the same time, sequencing is used, and the player whose turn it is would decide the order of operations. Yes, the sarge can buff his squad with the bolts.

Its not possible to do that targetting happens at the same time and at that point you cannot target the embarked unit.

He is (I assume) talking about two different units. I can use a Lascannon from Unit A to crack a transport, then shoot the gooey innards with Bolters from unit B.

Yes, i meant two different units. Of course you cant target a unit which isnt on the battlefield.

Yeah this works fine OP. Fire Morkai first then the rest of squad get the rerolls if it hits. It’s like a Markerlight.
