L30n1d4s Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Now that Plasma Cannons (like all blast/Ordnance weapons) scatter, what determines if there is an overheat or not? The Scatter distance dice? Thanks Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/150742-plasma-cannons-and-gets-hot/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morte Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 You roll a dice before it fires, to determine whether it gets hot at all. If it doesn't, then you proceed with the scatter dice.

King_Pash Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 So what happens in the case of Get's Hot? eg. a PC fires, gets hot, the guy dies - is it misfired or does it still count?

WarpSpawn Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I'd say it still counts. To get hot, the weapon has to be fired. The rules do not tell us to discard the shot if it gets hot, whether the firer dies or not.

Hexx Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Rules actually say a blast weapon doesn't fire if a 1 is rolled for "gets hot". Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/150742-plasma-cannons-and-gets-hot/#findComment-1754377 Share on other sites More sharing options...
