I think an easy way would be to do a roll off for who rolls it (more dice rolls means more fun)

Could Corbello reroll the roll to see who rolls?

He's listed as "unique". I forget whether that means anything in apoc.
But to use the (single) choice to make sure you can use it later seems faily :D..(like in emergancy break glass to get hammer, and you need a hammer to break the glass :D)
Anyway the end of turn thing relies on you not having used it at anypoint before then as well.. I'd rather use it to guide a unit down or remake a cover save for a landraider or something long before that.. if it came to a who finishes roll that its my turn to take... I already have missed most of the best oppurtunities to use it play wise- hence as I said originally I haven't actually got round to using it at all yet..how beardy is that.

I feel its another one of those, things which if you take it you'll have to write a reminder to yourself about using, or forget entirely.

For example, my regular space wolf list pretty much always uses Logan Grimnar, but I either have to write a big reminder to myself or rely on my opponents good graces, the number of times I forget to pick a special rule for him.

I think it more relies on finding someone that considers it a reasonable interpretation. :wink:

I would allow it, based on what I have read in this thread, but I would want to roll-off to determine which of us is rolling to see if there is another turn.

I wouldn't because the context is obvious.

Which one? :D
I'm looking at old faqs.. trying to find the one where the question was ""any"...really?" and the response was "yes "Any" means "any""

Because there's a difference between the strict English interpretation of an action conducted by you being "your" and the contextual 40k interpretation which covers only rolls exclusive to your army.

The possesive vs altering someone elses bits and bobs..how does that work vs rerolling seizing the intiative or rerolling your who goes first dice..Isn't that simply an "I own My dice" argument..similar to early lash arguments? (edit for clarity..about not touching my models meaning the rule couldn't work)

EDIT Suppose the rules said the player with the highest strategy score went first on a 4+..I have ahigher strategy score and I roll a 3... can I reroll that roll?

I think I get what you mean: a roll for you isnt the same as a roll by you (i.e. just because you happen to be the person rolling the dice, doesnt mean it is one of "your" rolls - you could say that it is one of the game's rolls, just that the game cant roll for itself, so asks a player to throw the dice for it).
