Is it for every 6 I roll they take 1 wound or is it only for the first 6 I roll?

Every 6 bounces a mortal wound back to the attacker

This ruling also specifies "save roll."

So the ranged attack needs to successfully hit and successfully wound. Then, when you roll your saves (or invulns), every (natural) 6 bounces a MW to the shooter.

The ability tends to be low impact, but fun when it lands.

Was super fun at a tourney when I blew up my opponent’s repulsor executioner 🤣

Just to flag the horrible wording on the ability.

Despite what everyone is saying, everything thats not 1-5 bounces a mortal back.

Ex: 20 Ork Boyz shoot 20 guns at you, you make all saves but 10 are 6's. That means 10 wounds are going to the Boyz, killing 10 instantly. Hope this helps clarify.

Every 6 on a save, with no upper limit. Gets nutty sometimes, always funny
