Sorry about this; I tried to post a reply to one of the earlier questions on this unit, but was unable to do so.
What I woud like to know is: When this unit makes its addtional attack, do the die roll modifiers (Innacurate 1, for example) count when checking for rolls of 1? What I mean is, if I fire my mortar at an enemy Soldier at medium range and throw my 5 dice, do I check for any 1's before or after the modifier(s)? Say I threw 6,5,4,2,2 - Innacurate 1 would modify this roll into 5,4,3,1,1. Does the modifier count?
Also, if I was already disrupted, I take it that both disruption and Innacurate 1 would modify my die rolls by -2. Is this correct?

Many thanks indeed

You're only concerned about dice that actually show 1 pip, not dice that are modified down to 1s. The same thing applies in reverse -- if a unit (such as a flamethrower) gets a special result on 6s, only dice that actually show 6 pips count, not any that are modified up from 5s to 6s. Likewise, a 6 still counts as a 6 for special abilities even if the attacker has a -1, and a 1 still counts as a 1 if the attacker has a +1.
