Okkam's Mindrazor + SiN?

Last night I was doing some play testing with the Wizarding Hat (100pts Common Item, char is lvl 2 wizard and stupid, gets two spells from a random lore) and I got lore of Shadow.

One of the spells I got was Okkam's Mindrazor (Unit uses Ld as strength for one turn). My question is, do you take Strength in Numbers into account in this case? Also can models in a unit use a character's Ld?

This will be sneaky indeed if this is of I can imagine a unit of clanrats with a warlord and three ranks. Lots of strength ten attacks. Oh or maybe even on a unit of plague monks.

I believe not. SiN, Inspiring Presence, and character in unit all mention applying to leadership tests. It isn't just a blank use this whenever the book mentions leadership in anyway. You just use the models leadership value in place of strength value.

*Sigh* Strength 5 is still brutal for clanrats though, just doesn't make them good bloodknight killers.

Considering how much better S5 is than S3 in several respects, still not a bad thing. It's like every Monk in the unit decided to dual-wield flails! :o

Slim. However, you have heard the expression 'when life gives you lemons make lemonade'? This is not that. Okkam's is not a lemon, it's an apple, and when life hands you an apple, you make pie! :lol:

I'm pretty sure the brb faq addresses using the generals Ld and says that you can't so I would assumt SiN also doesn't work. Still, s5 is pretty nice on a lot of things...or give it to the hpa. How many s8 attacks?

I'm not quite mean enough to give it to a hell pit.

Mutate: Well 1/48 chance per spell roll, get two spells from the lore some chances seem good enough.

That's the main reason I was asking, chuck a unit of slaves at them and give them str 5 with SiN but I guess not. :(

You for sure can use the general's leadership, but I don't think SiN applies since it's not a test.
