veidin Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Rules in WH Codex say it scatters double the D6 on a miss and scatters the amount the arrow points on the hit symbol but otherwise is like a ordnance weapon. So on a miss is scatters 2d6X2, and on Hit it scatters 2d6 the arrow direction? Seems kinda rough for scatters. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatcrusade08 Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I think its just confusion over wording, the scatter is 2D6 only. GC08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veidin Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 What about on a "Hit" though? Codex says it scatters the D6 the way the bold arrow points on the D6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chromedog Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 WH and DH orbital strikes use the rules they have in their codices. ALL of them. They are different weapons to the SM commander one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veidin Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 K well that utterly didnt answer my question... So on a miss it scatters 2D6X2, and on a hit it scatters 2D6 in the direction of the bold arrow on the crosshair? Cuz that's how its worded in the Codex.

Grey Mage Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Actually I think Veidins confusion is that in the WH codex it really does not say 2d6, just d6. But it also says it fires as per ordnance- wich in the BRB says 2d6. This is a valid point of confusion Id say. Thankfully the WH FAQ clears this up for us- you can download it on the GW website. It states you ignore the inaccuracy rule completely and simply treat it as a ordnance weapon that doesnt have LOS- ie it goes 2d6 as per scatter and you can "hit" with it normally if you roll such.
