Epy Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Is vindicator's demolisher a barrage weapon? The profile on page 80 says it's ordnance 1. But the summary on the last page says demolisher is ordnance 1, barrage. Therefore I'm a little bit confused...

Commander Skaav Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Is vindicator's demolisher a barrage weapon? The profile on page 80 says it's ordnance 1. But the summary on the last page says demolisher is ordnance 1, barrage. Therefore I'm a little bit confused... Not too sure really... I thought barrage was for vehicles like IG Basilisks, long range artillery, that sort of thing, where as something like the Vindicator is only being 24", I wouldn't think of it being as such. Then again I don't tend to use Vindicators, it's all Lascannons and long range anti-tank for me.

Commander Skaav Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 the new useless marine FAQ says no don't ask me to link to it, I ain't going on the GW site if I can avoid it *off-topic* - Not the only one then... Back on topic... Had a feeling I was some how right in my estimation, but like you Epy, I'm in the dark about it, as like I said, I don't tend to use Vindicators that much.

Steelmage99 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 We are told that when summaries and unit entries disagree, you use the unit entry. As an aside, I don't understand why these questions come up. GW can not, even at gunpoint, make a correct summary. They display a complete inability to check them for wordings, rules and spelling errors. The one time they made an attempt to gather all summaries together (the "Wargear" book) it was filled with mistakes, and several sections was invalidated a few months later by the release of Codex Tau Empire. The exact same situation occurs when one looks at the summaries in the back of the rulebook. GW knows about their incompetence in this regard, so much so we have been given the above guideline. Why anybody lends any weight to summaries is completely beyond me. Unless of course this game is new to you. Then you are forgiven. <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159445-is-vindicators-demolisher-a-barrage-weapon/#findComment-1869358 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nighthawks Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 as said above - the newly released FAQ includes the problem in the ERRATA - so it is official - though what Steelmage99 said about the guidelines for list/summary disagreement is true.
