1. When I played my first game, I used Lore of Heavens with the Slann. I used only the free dice to cast 2nd sign of amul...didn't feel right so I never did it again after that game...but is it legal?

To cast you pick spell and target...nominate amount of dice...can you say Zero dice and use the free one? Feels dirty...

2.Can you stand and shoot with Giant Blow Pipes?

3. The Sun Bow (3x Magical shots) states 3x Muliti shots...do you suffer -1 for Multi shot?

4. If the Slann is given the Bow can he see in the back rank in the shooting phase?

5. When Skink/Krox unit is in combat how do you declare what weapon the unit is using?

6. What is the US of Swarms...3?...5?

1) No. YOu can't declare casting a spell with no dice. This works the same way as a power stone; you need to declare the number of dice used to cast a spell. You can't potentially cast a spell (Unless its bound) with Zero dice.

2) Yes, since the rules for shooting units always assumes they may stand and shoot. All the units in the game that can't stand and shoot say so, ie, salamanders, warpfire throwers, war machines, etc.

3) Yes, it's 3x multiple shots, you suffer the penalty.

4) Slann is only a large target for purpouses of casting spells, not the shooting phase.

5) The Krox obviously choose GW every round. Since the skinks don't have a GW, they must use a hand weapon.

6) No idea.

The US of swarms is 3 i think. It goes by base size for models on a 40mm which are monsters US3. The wounds = US is for monsters on a 50mm base if i am not mistaken.
