A lot of people seem to be searching for the Killing Blow rule and what it is so for those of you asking

"How does the Killing Blow Rule Work ?"

Here's you answer and an easy way to remember it.

It should be called the Killing Wound rule ! If a character or unit has this ability then roll to hit, then roll to wound. Any wound rolls of 6 = a Kill (irrespective of the number of wounds remaining).

Note:
No armour save or regeneration save is allowed
Ward saves can still be taken

Can only be used against roughly man size creatures (up to a unit strength of 2 - so this doesn't include monster base models like Trolls and Ogres).

There you go, I hope that helps.

PS. Thanks to Ikke for correcting an error I made.
