Funny situation?

[Kloud13]

So, if a Space Marine Independant Character joins an allied unit of Guardsman, with a Commisar, and that unit fails a morale check, does the commisar execute the Marine? Suppose it's a good thing that the "It's for your own Good" rule is under the IG Psykers rules and not the Commisars, or else the Librarian would be maybe a little worried.

[Latro_]

haha you sir just made my day.

'will summarily execute the squad's current commander - this is the model in the squad with the highest leadership value'

'Battle brothers are treated 'friendly units' ... 'can be joined by allied independent characters'

So yes, bahhahaha yes! i even checked the FAQ.

Commisaar Xavier?
yes private
you just shot marneus calgar lord of the ultramarines in the back of the head
yes private what of it
um, i think you should look behind you sir...
its ok private, on a 2+ they'll kill you instead
ugh, but, *dakkad dakkaakdkkd* arrghh!

[The bearded one]

I heard a story of someone who had that..

the problem was.. it was Marneus Calgar using his special rule to fail a ld test on purpose! And then the commissar shot Calgar

[Capussa]

This is hillarious, I am now considering building an army just so that it can happen

I wonder how many marine characters I can kill with a commissar lord through this in one game?

[Latro_]

Lol do it with an inquistor, even funnier

How very droll! One point to Gryffindor!

[Desalbert]

LOL that is amazing!

[loveless]

So Commisars just became the greatest threat to the heroes of the Adeptus Astartes...I can appreciate this.

[Sexiest_hero]

You know He can do in one shot what every big bad has failed to do with whole armies. I swear they should make a troll commisar...Doing the carlton dance!

[Formerly Wu]

They don't call them "uncompromising" for nothing, after all.

[2nd place]

love it, I may have to model this up as a dioramah for my next painting comp...

Judge: what do you call this sir...
me: I call this the emporor's undying thanks to the adeptus astartes
Judge: If thats the case I think someone should turn off his life support, he's clearly demented...

[IrishDelinquent]

Careful not to let this spread though.....next guard codex we'll see a Commissar one-shotting an Avatar.

[Monospot]

I can see the Commisar/Calgar conversaion...

Scene - Commisar Bob, reloading his bolt pistol for the fourth time after unloading into Calgar at point blank, cursing under his breath. Calgar sitting patiently in front of bemused troops and enemies alike

Commisar - Emperor's codpiece, won't you freaking die?
Calgar - Now, now, Commisar, keep your poise in front of the troops
Commisar - Calgar, you have multiple wounds, and I only have a 1 in 18 chance of even taking one of them off! Hell, why are you even letting me shoot you?
Calgar - Commisar, I believe that Guilliman would applaud your efforts to keep morale up. I believe, in chapter 1072 verse 16, the primarch even comments on the importance of the budding Commisariat being vital in post heresy
military structure.
Commisar - Yeah, thats great. Now take off your freaking helmet so I have a fighting chance!

[Mikial]

This is totally warped . . . I love it!

I'm not up to speed on IG rules so this may already be covered, but would the marine then get a Look Out, Sir! roll? Commissar goes to execute space marine captain, guardsman hurls himself in the way and takes the shot... marine isn't to pleased with the commissar, I imagine.

Nope. Commissar immediately removes the model, regardless of wounds remaining. No wound allocated, so no FNP or LoS allowed. Otherwise you could have an IG grunt try to LoS for their sarge during normal summary execution.

[2nd place]

nope, there is no save to be taken, he is just removed as a casualty, poor calgar, 4 wounds and being lord macragge cout for crap in the eyes of a commissar, I mean this guy is not even a lord commissar, he just another IG red tape b*&£ch

[Noodle!]

Absolutely brilliant! I tip my hat in your general direction.

[jason_sation]

God! Somebody needs to make a Commissar Fuklaw model!

[Dylius]

That's excellent!
