8th Ed. Staff of the lost sun

[Bootymaster]

It has been a few years since I have played WH so I may be a bit rusty on the rules so forgive me. If I give my skink chief the staff of the lost sun and he has 3 attacks so does he get 3 x3 multi shots or just 1 x3 multi shot? I just want to make sure I am not missing anything rules wise.

Just the 1 x3 multi shot.
Oh and it's not poisoned,
But it is quite long range.

 

[Turtleneck]

1x3 shots attacks has nothing to do with how many shots u make

 

[Hasnat]

The staff is treated as a short bow. So, you only get 1 x 3 Multiple Shots per turn.

Follow up question to this - Does this item take a -1 for multi-shot.

I can not remember, been ages since I used it.

Yes, it does take the -1 for multi-shooting. However, the chief's BS is high enough for it to not matter in most situations.

On another note, every time I used this item (4-5 games), the unit of terradons out shoot the chief!

Then you should take it every time because it compels the terradons to get their act together!

Good point, I hadn't thought of it that way before.

I'm going to move this thread to the rules section.

Also, I like your logic Scalenex! That must be why you don't see packs of warhorses without riders. They need a knight on top so they can outperform him!

Lol, yea, I have witnessed that with bretts all the time. I especially think it is funny with Pegasus Knights. My Brett opponent would almost skip the Knights, the Pegasus perform so well.
