shrike22 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Im not sure if a turbo boosting bike squad's cover save would be negated by a barrage weapon? Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/158428-turbo-boosting-bikes/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyescrossed Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Why would a barrage weapon ignore their cover save? They're not getting it from a certain point, and barrage weapons don't ignore cover saves, they treat the shot as having came from the direction of the hole. So no, I don't think they'd get negated by the barrage weapon - only weapons that ignore cover, like teardrop template weapons.

They dont ignore all cover save but they ignore some and i thought this may have been one of the some because the bikes arn't actually in cover.

eyescrossed Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Exactly, they get their cover save from a special rule, not actual terrain. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/158428-turbo-boosting-bikes/#findComment-1854908 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Only a barrage weapon that specifically ignored cover (such as incindiary missiles on Whirlwinds) would negate the cover of a bike.

eyescrossed Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Thank you JamesI. What? He said exactly what I said (besides the whirlwind thing, which is a no brainer) but you only thanked him. Not to sound self centered, but do you have something personal against me?

Isiah Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Cool it gents. There really is no need of such puerile antics. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/158428-turbo-boosting-bikes/#findComment-1855097 Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatcrusade08 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Cool it gents. There really is no need of such purile antics. There, fixed that for you....youd really think these mods would have a spell-checker :P Anyway back to topic, only weapons that specifically state "ignores cover saves", so flamers whirlies and GK weaponry would be ok. But barrage weapons who use the template for a frame of reference to ignore intervening cover would not help...

Cool your ego, everyone got thanks in advance but he said it without coming of pissy or with a very contradictory post and i may have thought his answer was better then yours and which warranted a special thanks.

I shall be watching your future posting habits very carefully. ------------------------ That aside this, thread is closed for exactly the puerile antics I was on about earlier. I can't believe that you guys are arguing about who thanked who!! Anyone else with similar ideas of carrying on after being asked not to by a B&C staff member risks a warning. Anyone not familiar with the B&Cs ethos of constructive discussion can read up on it themselves in the Forum Rules. Anyone not wanting to follow this are more than welcome to go elsewhere – it's a big internet.
