Hfran Morkai Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Well I was running through my Planetstrike lists and came across something that I want some clarification on. Say I have a pack of SW Terminators arrive near the bastion. The pack is armed with three combi-meltas, a combi-flamer and a heavy flamer. I can shoot the bastion with my flame weapons, causing d6 hits on the unit contained within, then I can attack the bastion with my combi-meltas, is this allowed? Also I guess if I were to do it the other way round and pop the bastion with a combi-melta that I couldn't flame the unit that emerges, as this seems to break rules for resolving shooting. Cheers!

thade Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 I'm sad to say that I'm pretty sure you can't do this. The bastion functions like a transport and so you can't target the units inside. Flamers are a noted exception to this, but to use the flamer in this way you still have to target the unit inside...and you can't target both the embarked unit and the bastion. One or the other. You could pop the bastion then charge the guys that were inside though.

hisdudeness Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I think you might be wrong, thade. I does not say you target the unit in the building, it just says that if a temple falls on a fire port the unit inside also take d6 hits, in addition to the building taking one hit as normal. p80 LRB. So you can shoot the building and still hit the units hiding in side witht he templates.

thade Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I don't mind being wrong if it means he can fry the guys inside, AND pop the bastion, AND assault them. =) I'm into that.

Hfran Morkai Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 Well I was hoping I'd be able to roast them as well as melt the bastion considering SW termies lack the ability to assault out of deepstrike. And otherwise there'd be a lot more angry opponents with a nice easy target.

Koremu Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Yes, you can shoot everything at the Bastion and "happen" to hit the stuff inside with the Flamer as well.
