Dodging on your own turn

By Duskwalker, in Dark Heresy Rules Questions

Hello everyone. I got a quick question.

The rules explicitly forbid to use reactions during your turn. Does that mean you can't dodge or parry attacks made against you during your turn (walking into over-watch; fleeing form melee; getting hit by counterattack)?

P. 220, Evasion, second paragraph, last sentance:

"Reactions cannot be used during the his [sic] own turn, so he cannot Dodge/Parry attacks made via Overwatch or when he flees from combat during his own turn, and so on."

So yes, you can't dodge counterattacks, overwatches, free attacks, and so on.

Fortuantely, delaying your action cannot interrupt someone else's turn, so you don't wind up with delaying to shoot someone on their own turn (wording that if I recall, was woefully missing in DH1).

I thought so, but I wasn't sure. Thanks.

You can't delay but you can overwatch using something like ' if he keeps breathing' for trigger to the exact same effect.
