Single Re-roll per die?
There used to be a rule that a die can only be re-rolled once. Is that still in with 6th? I have yet to come up but was curious.

Ya, you can only re-roll a thing once.
For example. If Kairos is your warlord.
You roll on the Warp Storm table and get a 4 & 3 for 7. Nothing! But you get greedy and want to re-roll using Kairos's Warlord trait! Disaster! You roll a 1 & 2 for a 3, and Kairos is your only Psyker! He gonna die! You now can not re-roll the 1 or the 2 using Kairos's special 1 die re-roll per player turn, as both of those dice have already been re-rolled.
Another Kairos based example. Your Herald of Tzeentch with a Grimoire failed his "Look out Sir!" roll. He rolls his invulnerable save, he rolls a "1", and the tzeentch re-roll kicks in, he rolls a "2", that's no better. At this point, he still can't use Kairos's re-roll because the die has already been re-rolled.

I don't see how they can "miss" this... its right there (mini rule book) page 5, Re-roll: "....No single dice can be re-rolled more than once..."
Those that don't follow this aren't reading the rules in their entirety. As Robyn put it, its been this way forever and a millennium.

I can see new players missing it.. especially if your coming from a system that may allow it

Well I just wanted to make sure they had kept it. I know that is how it used to be and was far to lazy this morning to track down a rulebook
