Tigrinus Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Do any of you guys know whether or not an ordinary, non-tank skimmer can initiate a ram? The BRB lists the rules for ramming under the Tanks section, and the only time they discuss skimmers is how they can avoid a ram. I'm curious because a buddy of mine tried to ram my land raider with a land speeder that had moved a full 24 inches...ouch! I let him do it, but now I wonder if the rules allow for such things.

Starblayde Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Quite simply, only tanks can ram, as they're the only ones designed to. Skimmers are designed to be light and delicate. What was the outcome of the ram - one splatted Speeder I imagine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 No. It must clearly state Tank in the unit type, as Ramming is a special form of Tank Shock, and only Tanks have access to this special move. Thus, no landspeeders, valkyries, or Dark Eldar skimmers (amongst other units) can ram. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigrinus Posted November 16, 2009 Author Share Posted November 16, 2009 What was the outcome of the ram - one splatted Speeder I imagine? Yeah, the speeder splatted. I was just wondering about the specifics of the rules because I also have speeders in my force, and it would be cool to charge them into the flanks or backsides of light enemy vehicles.
