What are people's thoughts on defensive driver rerolls?

"When rolling defence dice you may reroll one die"

Is it either
1. One die for the whole of the "being shot at phase"
2. Reroll one die for each set of defence dice rolls I make

I'm going for the first after Vasily got his wings clipped.

The MTG player in me says that the ability triggers whenever applicable. "When you roll defense..." When do you roll defense? Every time you're attacked. Alternatively, Vasily just gives you a set amount of rerolls to use when applicable. You can divide them amongst any number of attacks, but his ability only give you so many to use, total.

PS. Wording that would alleviate these ambiguities: "whenever," "each time," "once per X," "before/during/after a single/any/each X."

I'd like it to be every time you roll, but if you get shot at 3 times you can reroll 3, which is a hefty benefit for only 3 points.

Truth, but without the added ability to reroll three times in a single attack, or two and one. For the lack of flexibility, I think they each suit their values and individual roles.

Defensive Driver grants a re-roll each time you roll defence dice; so one re-roll per attack.
Put it on a tank you expect to get a lot of attention :P

Seems to confirm that the "when rolling dice of type x" language applies to every time you roll dice of type x.
