| Say my BS 3 hero wants to shoot a model. Normally a 4+ to hit, no problem. But suppose the target is under cover (5+). And at long range (6+). And my hero moved (7+). Since it's pretty hard to roll a 7 on a six sided die, it looks like the shot's impossible. However, I seem to remember some house rules that allow models to "roll a 7." Are there any house rules for this situation? | |

| 7+ would be 6 and then 4.
8+ would be 6 and then 5
9+ would be 6 and then 6.
That's what it used to be in Fantasy Battle (at least in sixth)
So you need to first roll a six and then roll again. | |

| Officially that is an impossible shot.
However, TheMuumio has listed the method based on WFB that some people use (or have talked about using). | |

| We use that house rule too. It doesn't happen often... but it's always fun when it does!  | |
