Skarbrand's Total Carnage

[Rid]

Skarbrand's total carnage says that if it goes off it does 8 wounds with no saves, does this mean just armour saves as printed on a warscroll OR does it include things like Death/Nurgle extra saves etc?

[BaldoBeardo]

Just armour saves. The extra rolls aren't classed as saves.

Cool cheers!

if you have 8 wounds or less though, you die. no ifs, no buts. dead.

Its also important to note that those are not mortal wounds. 

It hits like a train.

So things that give a mortal wound save don't get a look in? Only specific bonus saves like death/nurgle/spells or abilities to ignore "wounds" on a dice roll?

[Arkiham]

yeah, like the stonehorn ability. it halves it ( is the current community FAQ until an official one is released)   every other model as far as i know has less than 8 wounds an instantly dies.

Unless you're Kroak.

None of the "ward saves" that work against mortal wounds are called "saves". The important point is that the wounds don't carry over to another model.

i don't think anything can ignores wounds from total carnage. it's said that "the hit has caused total carnage and one enemy model in the target unit LOSES 8 wounds..." it's not INFLICTING 8 wounds or mortal wounds, it's just that model in the unit that skarbrand attacking is  immediately, poof, 8 wounds got stripped off. but that 8 wounds are only for 1 model, so if that guy's died, there's no excess wounds to the other guys from the same unit
