Can I discard another Ammo after seeing the first Combat die roll for Sentry’s SMG?
Quick answer
No, you cannot discard another Ammo after the first Combat die roll unless the weapon's specific rules allow it.
Details
The general rule for Shoot Actions states that you discard 1 Ammo marker from the weapon’s card when performing the action, then resolve the Combat die roll [p.20 — Combat]. There is no provision in the provided rules for discarding additional Ammo based on the die result unless explicitly stated on the weapon’s card or a specific Action card.
The Sentry’s SMG is not detailed in the rulebook excerpts, so its behavior defaults to standard weapon rules. If the SMG had a special ability (e.g., "discard an additional Ammo to reroll the die"), it would need to be printed on the card. Since no such rule is mentioned, players must follow the base Shoot Action procedure.
Watch out: Some weapons or Item cards may allow rerolls or additional effects by discarding extra Ammo, but this is weapon-specific. Always check the weapon’s card for unique rules.
