So the Cadian stratagem OFF says to add 1 to any hit rolls made by other Cadian units after as wound has been scored by any other Cadian unit; would this mean that, say, if a mortar team scored a wound against an enemy unit, without any hit-modifiers, and Pask fired at the same enemy without moving, he would be auto-hitting seeing as though he has a 2+ BS? Thanks!

Read the rules for Shooting, specifically the part about rolling to hit. BRB, Page 181, Left Column, 2nd Paragraph, Final Line.

In short, you'll miss if you roll a 1.

You always miss on a natural 1. However, if you normally hit on a 2+ and get +1 to your shooting skill then you can fire at something that gives you a -1 to hit and still get them by rolling a 2 or better.

It did seem slightly OP in my mind when I read it, but I just figured Pask would be the guy to manage to roll around in an auto-hitting Russ. Thanks for explaining though!
