Okkams mindrazor and trial of blades

Post by Leon05 »

Will Sisters of slaughter still benefit from Trial of blades vs S4+ targets if you cast Okkam's Mindrazor on them, to get +2 to hit/wound vs anything lower than WS6 T9?

Okkams mindrazor: "... use their leadership instead of their strength when rolling to wound with all close combat attacks." So as I read it, they use their LD, they dont substitute their S for LD. As such, a sister with okkams mind razor is still base S3. Which means if swinging at a target with S4, she gets +1 to wound.

However, in no way can they obtain +2 to hit. Trial of blades say +1 to hit and to wound if one of the following conditions are met: in B2B with a model with higher WS or S. Its not +1 for both, its +1 in total.

If what you're asking is if they still wound T9 on a 2+ if they have WS6 or S4 base, then yes. 3+ normal, +1 to wound, would give a to wound roll of 2+ ;)

Slightly confused.

With lower than WS6 i mean any target with WS1 to WS5 (and S4+) would be hit on 2+, regardles of okkam's mindrazor or not.

And lower than T9 would then be T1 to T8, wouldnt they still need 3+ to wound T9?

Whoops. Was assuming LD10 (was thinking bloodwrack shrine, my mistake :) )

Yes, they would still need 3+ to wound T9.
