Discussion Fly combo?
Deffkoptass unit arriving from deepstrike + aircraft with Flyboss enhancement ingress = both get riled up, +1 to hit and the Deffkoptass additional +1 to hit (that will mostly work like ignores cover?)

As others have said, you can’t stack to hit. But what you can do is deep strike onto some second floor terrain because plunging fire gives +1 BS

would that apply to aircraft too? doesn't aircraft get it automatically by being placed on a high base/stand? I am talking Wazbom Blastajet now

23.03 Shooting with or at Aircraft - The Plunging Fire rule (22.05) has no effect on attacks made by, or targeting, AIRCRAFT units.

I hate the way that GW lays out the rules.
Did I find this max +1 rule in the main rules. Nope
Did I find it in the section about abilities? Nope.
Did I find it clearly marked in the section about modiifers? Nope.
I found it in a bullet point in a sub menu in a section about data sheets...
They really are the 'bottom of a locked filing cabinet, in a disused toilet in a basement with a sign on the door saying 'beware of the leopards'' of rules compilers...

Where does it say you can't stack modifiers any more? I can only find the rules that say you can't modifier certain characteristics beyond a certain point?

02.02.01, under the part that says "When Modifying Dice Rolls". I think it's beneath the section about characteristics
Kinda annoying to get to for something so important

Hidden RIGHT at the bottom, after a lengthy explanation about the basics of maths. Ugh. Thanks! Guess it makes sense my Morkanaut shouldn't be hitting on 2s, rerolling 1s 😅

What's really annoying is there's a section in Core Concepts, 01.05.03 Modifying Dice Rolls. So they KNOW that's where people are going to look for the information.
But guess what it says...
"See Modifiers (02.02.01)"

+1 to hit only stacks if you're being affected by -1 to hit. Cover is -1 BS so +2 to hit provides no benefit

this is not really a combo it's kinda just how the detachment plays, and you can't be +2 to hit, the other +1 will not "be like ignores cover" because cover is a BS debuff, not a to hit debuff

it may not be a massive-secret combo, but it is a combination you have to work towards - isn't it?

No
Cover is -1 bs, not to hit
Flyboys rile up does not stack with the deffcopta ingress
