rerolling dice

[Kinslayer]

I've just reread the basic rules section. The section under the title rerolling dice states that if you reroll 2D6 or 3D6, you have to reroll all the dice. I knew this, of course. But does that mean, if rerolling hits for the rule hatred for example, the whole unit has to reroll?

So, 10 Druchii attack and score only 2 hits. Do the other 8 reroll, or all 10?

Sorry if this is simple, but I always played it where only the 8 missed attacks would reroll, but just wanted a confirmation.

Well, Hatred says reroll all missed hits. But for anything else like Ld tests etc. then reroll all of them. So to answer your question, reroll all dice unless you see an exception in the rule like in Hatred. Hope that made sense.

Kinslayer you are spot on. Only misses are re-rolled. If you have 20 attacks and 12 hit and 8 miss, then you re-roll only the 8. Any attacks that hit, cannot be re-rolled, and that's a good thing

that means that if you reroll something like a leadership test or a flee/pursuit roll, where the dice are added together, you reroll all the dice (except where the reroll specifically says otherwise, like cold blooded or corsairs). To hit rolls are separate rolls for each model, they simply get rolled together because it's quicker, so they get rerolled separately.

Alright, thanks for the answers. Good to know I had it right
