I'm sure it's been asked and answered, but my search fu was weak and the FAQ was no help.
Do kills from impact hits and stomps performed by Skragg count toward his body count for his cauldron abilities?

impact yes, stomp no. Stomps do not count because of the FAQ which states:
Q: Do Stomps or Thunderstomps benefit from any other special
rules, equipment or magic items? Or vice versa? (p76)
A: No to both questions.

I would have said yes to both personally.
The FAQ statement Cleavelander provided states that stomp cannot benefit from special rules.
In this case Stomp is not benefitting from a special rule, the special rule is benefitting from stomp.
I don't have the specific wording at hand but if it's anything like what I remember from the previous book it only excluded Magic, and thus Bonecruncher.

That's where the "Or vice versa?" comes into play...

Curse Games Workshops blanket answers! (or should I curse poorly worded questions) There is at least one situation in the FAQ where Games Workshop's answer "Yes to all questions" creates more questions than it answers.
