Warding Lantern

[Thanos-se]

Warding lantern healing ability of Lord-Castellant, can heal the wounds that a unit did not make to save in a combat phase OR it can only heal the wounds which that unit have suffered in a previous combat?

The ERRATA says "If the Lord-Castellant targets a Stormcast Eternal unit with his Warding Lantern, each save roll of 7 or more made by that unit until the next hero phase immediately heals one wound on one model, and does so with a +1 modifier to its save rolls. If you are making several attacks at the same time (rolling all of the hit, wound and save rolls simultaneously), this means you must first heal wounds for saves of 7 or more, and then apply the damage inflicted by attacks that were not saved."

To my consideration it means that you can heal both the already suffered wounds as much as the incoming wounds from failed save rolls if you have rolled a 7+.

Thanks in advance.

It heals wounds that the unit had suffered before the attack you are saving at the moment.

The point is, that the game works this way.

If an enemy unit for example has 3 weapontypes and attacks one unit you make the following.

• Rolling to hit, to wound, save and damage for weapon 1 (putting the damage into a pool)
• Rolling to hit, to wound, save and damage for weapon 2 (putting the damage into a pool)
• Rolling to hit, to wound, save and damage for weapon 3 (putting the damage into a pool)

Only after you handeled the last weapon, the combined pool of weapons 1-3 will be allocated to the models.

This means if you roll a save of 7 for a wound of weapon 2 or 3. The wounds of weapon 1 or 2 aren't allocated to a model yet, and this way can't be healed.

Only wounds from a combat before this one can be healed because the wounds are allocated to a model.

(this is basicly stated on page 7 of the corerules (allocating models and later)
