Dravenguild Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Well, I was under the impression that ordnance weapons (Large blasts) could pin, not just ordnance barrage. But skimming through the main book, it appears to me that's no longer the case. So am I mistaken? Or can we still pin with say, a vindicator?

eyescrossed Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 I don't think you pinned with Ordnance weapons even in 4th Edition... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166722-ordnance-no-longer-pins/#findComment-1963503 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legatus Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Ordnance did not pin in 3rd or 4th Edition, and it does not do in 5th Edition either. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166722-ordnance-no-longer-pins/#findComment-1963508 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 A lot of people make this mistake. I don't know how often I get hit with a Vindicator shell and am told to take a pinning test.

Mal Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Isn't it barrage that pins not ordinance? I know it can be confusing because pretty much all barrage weapons are also ordinance... but they have seperate rules.

Legatus Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Off the top of my head I can think of 4 common regular barrage weapons and 2 common ordnance barrage weapons. Of course you will get a lot more ordnance barrage if you start counting all the various Forgeworld products... Also, I think the Vindicator has incorrectly been listed as "Ordnance, Barrage" in the stat summary of the Codex Space Marines. The unit description earlier on describes it correctly IIRC. Perhaps that is where the Vindicator thing is coming from.

jeffersonian000 Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Yep, the Vindicator's Demolisher cannon is listed as an Ordinance, Barrage weapon, so it would force a pinning test due to being a barrage weapon.

SJ No, it doesn't. The summary entry for the Demolisher cannon is incorrect. It was FAQ'd.

Frosty the Pyro Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 And even if it wasnt (faq'd that is) it still wouldnt, as when the entry and the summery disagree, you always go with the entry Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166722-ordnance-no-longer-pins/#findComment-1968162 Share on other sites More sharing options...
