so the bio-dagger says.
each time the bearer fights, no more than 1 attack can be made with this weapon. (simple enough)
each time an attack is made with this weapon against a unit (excluding vehicles or titanic units), an unmodified wound roll of 3+ inflicts a mortal wound on the target (again simple enough)
heres the bit that intrigues me - right after the mortal wound is inflicted it states --and the attack sequence ends--??
does that mean that any models that havent attacked yet dont get too?
or is it the magus who can no longer attack?

so im reading it as the attack sequence ends if you have models that havent attacked yet (tough oh well!!)
if this is the case mind control broodmind psychic power is terrifying.

anyone have other thoughts id love to hear them

IIRC it means they just do the Mortal Wound with the dagger, and not 'normal' damage.

Thanks mate i thought it was very weird and definitely broken the way i was reading it.

Attacks are made, in core rules, one at at time

So, for that one attack , after it causes that mortal wound, the sequence OF THAT ATTACK ends. You don't roll to wound, no saves etc.

Yeah it signifies that attack doesn't proceed through any remaining steps, every other attack still happens as normal.

it means that if you actually hit and wound with it the attack sequences ends.

any future games of 9th edition will no longer have access to the attack sequence. your game your mates games. anywhere. its global.

tau will become the dominant army.

all hail the fish people.
