Can somebody explain this rule and the Q&A to me please? I think I remember a discussion on this same topic, but I cannot find it now.
10.62 DESPERATION MORALE (DM): DM is a condition which afflicts any unit during the Player Turn it breaks (even if it breaks voluntarily) or any already broken unit which is subsequently attacked by CC/WP [errata included], or enough FP (taking the possibility of Cowering into account) to possibly inflict at least a NMC result on the target.
There are two Q&A
And this one:
We have been playing this rule the way that an 1fp attack never DM anything, because if it cowers, (...taking the possibility of Cowering into account...), there cannot be any effect.
Obviously wrong, but I dont understand why.... I know that if I roll a 3 on a 1+1 will be a NMC, but then, What´s the meaning of taking the possibility of Cowering into account?
TIA

A10.62 If a unit capable of cowering takes a 1 +1 shot at a broken unit does the broken unit become DM?
A. Yes.
And this one:
A10.62 With respect to a unit becoming DM when fired at on the IFT – Does the actual dice roll or result on the IFT matter in determining whether or not the target unit is placed under DM? If a unit capable of Cowering fires a 1 +1 shot on the IFT , and actually rolls doubles, is this sufficient to DM the target unit? If the firing unit actually Cowers on the dice roll (rolls doubles) is the FP reduced by two columns to determine DM?
A. The actual DR does not matter.
