Jink & Cover saves - CheZZoR - 15-06-2014 I just wanted to clarify whether cover & jink stacks? For instance, one of my venoms is hiding behind ruins(4+), it gets shot at and declares jink. Is it's cover save now boosted from 4+ to 2+? My reckoning is it should stack, just like going to ground in cover would boost your cover save from 4+ to 3+ but I just wanted some other opinions. Cheers. RE: Jink & Cover saves - manrogue - 15-06-2014 I don't think it does as it is a version of cover save and not a modifier. Stealth and shrouded stack as modify the cover save whereas Jink and a ruin (as an example) you would choose the better one. Same with GtG, its a modifier. There is nothing in the jink rules that says it stacks (at least in my PDF of seventh), and you would need something in there that says you can stack them. Jink text below to add to the convo- Quote:Jink Thats my reading of the rule, but of course other people may interpret it differently. RE: Jink & Cover saves - manrogue - 15-06-2014 Just to add again, this is the go to ground rule- Quote:Go to GroundBolded the key bit missing from Jink, allowance to improve the existing cover save. RE: Jink & Cover saves - Embolden - 16-06-2014 Jinks does not stack with cover :p Nor does stealth and shrouded, it specifically states may no combine. RE: Jink & Cover saves - manrogue - 16-06-2014 Wait, are you saying stealth and shrouded can't be combined this edition? My PDF says it does?-.... Quote:Shrouded Quote:StealthBolded bit where it says it does, or am i misinterpreting you Rob? RE: Jink & Cover saves - CheZZoR - 17-06-2014 Thanks for the clarification. I think rob meant shrouded doesn't stack with jink btw Vince. RE: Jink & Cover saves - Embolden - 17-06-2014 (17-06-2014, 04:10 PM)CheZZoR Wrote: Thanks for the clarification. WIll have to read the rulebook again lol... I'm 100% sure I've read somewhere that Shrouded does not stack with Stealth. Shrouded does stack with Jink, same as Stealth does. So you can get a 2+ cover save RE: Jink & Cover saves - jimbobabob - 23-06-2014 P 172 and P 170 both state shrouded and stealth can combine up to a maximum 2+ cover save RE: Jink & Cover saves - Embolden - 24-06-2014 (23-06-2014, 09:31 PM)jimbobabob Wrote: P 172 and P 170 both state shrouded and stealth can combine up to a maximum 2+ cover save Yeah mate, no idea where I picked that up from, lol. Spoke to vince the other week to confirm what you said. Can be combined. |
