    As it says in the title.
    Does the skill "BS attack +1 damage" apply to the entire order skill speculative attack?

    I would argue no, since I would assume that the wording of the skill "BS attack + x damage" referrences the actual short skill "BS attack" (p. 45 rulebook).
    However, the skill "speculative attack" also has the attack label and the text says "The user may make a single BS Attack against a target outside their LoF". This somewhat implies that the wording "BS attack" could also mean the general construct of a skill with the attack label that uses the BS trait. Is there any hint on what is correct here?

    Yep, which gives fun instances like Tarik lobbing Dam15 grenades around corners.

    Thanks a lot!

    I was asking because of the Druze profile with the E/M GL. Makes it equally as nasty :)
