-A number of racial abilities, and a few spells and SAIs, allow a unit to count one type of result they have rolled as another. For example, the racial ability [[racial_ability_ce_coastal_dodge|Coastal Dodge]] states: //'When at a terrain that contains green (water), Coral Elves may count maneuver results as if they were save results.'// Such an ability is called a 'Counts As' effect. Only rolled results may be counted in this way. Results generated by spells may never be counted as another type of result. Any results that are counted as a different type of result are considered a modifier that adds, and as such are applied during step 9 of Die Roll Resolution.+A number of species abilities, and a few spells and SAIs, allow a unit to count one type of result they have rolled as another.

For example, if a unit is targeted by a [[sai_coil|Coil]] SAI they make a combination roll counting melee and saves. The targeted unit rolls a [[sai_counter|Counter]] SAI – in a melee roll this generates melee results, in a save roll this generates save results. That player may choose to count the [[sais|SAI]] as applying to either the melee, or to the save part of the roll, but not to both.   * If an [[sais|SAI]] generates different results for each type of roll counted by the combination roll, then the player who rolled that [[sais|SAI]] may choose which result to apply.
