nik0 Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I have always believed that a plasma cannon was a large blast. But in the codex, it says blast.. Does this mean it only uses the small blast template? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhorneHunter57x Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 That is correct. Only weapons that say "large blast" use the 5" blast. "Blast" weapons use the 3" blast. (I made the same mistake with Vortex of Doom) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Oakenshield Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I used to think the PLasma Cannon got 2 shots a turn... :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 *blinks* The Plasmacannon hasnt had a large blast option to date as far as I can recall. Though that would be interesting. Note- you need to roll for overheat with PCs, and if you do roll that 1 they dont fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatman Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Unless it is on a vehicle, then you don't need to roll for overheat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeattleDV8 Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 The roll is part of 'Gets Hot', vehicles ignore the Gets Hot rule so no roll is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't make sense. Much zeal is just enough. "if I had one" ~ an education? Well I have learnt that education is a wonderful aid in smiting the Mutant, the Heretic and the Xenos. I have spend much time trying to read the Codex in furtherance of this, though I had to turn the Glove down to "extremely high" as otherwise I couldn't focus on the words. Though I was opposed to reading such material due to it killing my killing time, after a particularly nasty wound I suffered during our annual Rodeo whilst wrangling Dreadnoughts, I recalled during one of my Deathwatch tours that when on vessels without access to the gladiatorial pits I was used to, that this material did indeed improve my killing potential once back in action. So now I read such books as time permits. "if I had one" ~ a Plasma pred? I would drive it down the throat of a bio-titan and commence shooting! pH balance super-heated gas xenos scum! No, it is my right and privilege as a Space Marine to sulk in a pile of my own fury and disappointment :sweat: :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
