On the Dw Character Sheets Something Caught My Eye

By TempestSatori, in Deathwatch

Why under Auto-senses on the armor special qualities it says that Called Shots are a half action.......when have they not been? In Dark Heresy its just a modifier to the attack roll, I scoured that book and the errata and none of it says anything about calling a shot modifying the action the attack takes. So am I missing something or was the FFG team missing something when they wrote that up?

Called shots are a full action in Rogue Trader.

The auto-senses trait of the armour grants a space marine the ability to make called shots as a half action(pg 161). Without the armour(or probably just the helmet) called shots for a space marine are a full action (pg 238).

In Dark Heresy, the called shot rule on pg 198 is a circumstance or modifier to the shot itself, which is a standard attack, a half action, on page 191.
