Fear affecting stand & shoot

Post by Dark Alliance »

This is a point we regularly contest in our club.

A fear causing unit declares a charge against a unit of rxb. The rxbmen fail their fear test, but because they outnumber the enemy charging unit, they are hitting on 6s right, in the first round of hth?

Now, what happens with their stand and shoot ? Are they hitting on 6s when they shoot, or just normal modifiers?

I think there was a clarification about fear and charge reactions in the last WD (the one with the Beastmen list).

There was a clarification. You declare your charge reaction first, you then roll for Fear and if outnumbered and failed you run otherwise you stand and shoot. simple

Don't they roll for fear AFTER determining if the charge is successful or not?
Well, time WOULD be nice...
And, Storm of Chaos is here. Are you ready?
