PUSH appears 2 times. (Which affects the probabilty of rolling this, so you should definitely get your table corrected... Wink)

Those impact dice appear to be proper blocking dice, though the images on them differ slightly from the original ones (but a skull is a skull, no matter how exactly it looks like, same is true for an arrow and the other symbols - just copyright issues). They look quite nice, you should feel free to order some and use them.

If you've got to use a D6, I suggest the following:

1: Skull
2: Both Down
3: Push
4: Push
5: Defender Stumbles
6: Defender Down

A block die has 2 push results on it, so you definitely don't want to skip one of them and make it a reroll instead!

Must admit I do feel dirty every time I use it, after over 20 years of gaming and collecting dice 3 house moves have lost all trace of my faithful friends.

Least I will have some new little buddies to love, caress and make my own ..... ok, getting a little too sexy now!

Thought I would stick to same thread for my new player questions.

When a model has frenzy they follow-on after a block and try another block, is this the only time you can follow on from a push back etc and try blocking again? Just wondering as seems to happen a few times in the xbox version (went for that so can MP easier with my friends) but wanted to make sure we weren't missing a rule in the game itself.

If I understand your question correctly, frenzy is the only time a player can throw a second block in the same turn. (Unless they have ball and chain, but that's a whole different thing.) Nothing else allows the second block by that player. Of course, if you push a (defending) player into another of your (different) player's tackle zones, and that (new) player of yours has not yet taken an action, then you can throw a block on the (defending) player (if they are still standing, that is). Ummm... hope this helps. Smile

Yeah that is exactly what I was asking Smile Also am presuming if you block someone and there is no 'result' and no turnover someone else can block them again, they don't have to be pushed into a tackle zone?

So for example Defender has 2 opponents in his tackle zone. Result from roll is 'both down' but they both have block so no push back etc, as they are still in tackle zone of 2nd opponent they can then subsequently block with an assist from the 1st opponent?

Correct. He does not have to be pushed. He just has to be adjacent to one of your players that has not yet taken an action. Assist is, of course, contingent on the players being free of other opponent's tackle zones.

Perfect, we might even start using points to buy players and re-rolls soon after the Dark Elf v Chaos was so easily won by DE and on checking they had a 1/3 extra points. We enjoyed it though, looking forward to trying our my Norse team.
