Editing Warhammer 40k House Rules (section)

== 8th Edition ==
Hello, I am the Dominar. You can delete these if you want, I'm going to put them in a book anyway.

''' RETURN FIRE '''
*A unit that did not Advance, Charge or Attack in the previous round is considered COMBAT READY and can RETURN FIRE.
*To do so, when fired upon, every saving throw of 6 becomes a RF Token that you may assign 1 per model to the victim unit.
*These are to be used immediately, will expire at end of the phase, and all extras are discarded.

''' SEE YOU IN HELL '''
*When a model is slain, roll a d6 to make a dying attack. On a 6+ you may use one weapon on the closest enemy unit.

''' HE'LL BE ALRIGHT '''
*When shooting an enemy who is within 1" of a friendly model there is a risk of Friendly Fire. 
*On a Failed Hit Roll of 1 your attack hits the closest friendly model within the same Line of Sight.

''' FRELLING CHARGE '''
*On a Failed Charge Roll, move half+ (rounding up) of the rolled distance up to 2" from enemy units.

''' MOVE STEADY '''
*Move at D6" (up to the unit's maximum) to maintain accuracy with heavy weapons.

'''POWER SHIELD''' - An alternative to Invulnerable Saves.
*Provides improved Toughness and Armor Save at the cost of AP invulnerability.
**This should be used with units that in the fluff employ a small-arms stopping shield, as opposed to units like daemons who have a more aethereal existence.
Examples:
*Shield Generator 4++ becomes Inv2 
**+2 to Toughness and Armor Save.

*Guardian Field 5++ becomes Inv1 
**+1 to Toughness and Armor Save.

This is a tough one, TBH. I had a long discussion on dakkadakka and learned a lot about other armies. I don't want my Crisis suits running from those peashootas orkboys use, nor do I want them to become over-powered. There are terminators with storm shields to consider, as well as daemons with 7+ 5++ or w/e.
The Tau shield generator is supposed to be immune to small arms fire, not lascannons.

'''PLASMA GUNS''' - Making it so that machine spirits aren't scared of the dark.
*Supercharged Plasma weapons explode and slay the firing model on a natural 1, before modifiers and after re-rolls.

Pretty simple, just makes it so that hit penalties (e.g. The dark and Aeldari bullshit) don't also increase the likelihood of plasma weaponry exploding. It also stops supercharge spam for the tau as +1 to hit no longer guarantees no explosion.
