pryor Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 With the "Stronos" Razorback (Lascannon/Twin-linked Plasmaguns) does a Weapon Destroyed take out the whole turret or just the Lascannon/Twin-linked Plasmagun? The BRB says a weapon is destroyed & does not say anything about co-axial weapons so am I right in saying that only 1 weapon is destroyed but the other can still be used?

KhorneHunter57x Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Correct. A "Weapon Destroyed" result only takes out one of the guns. If you encounter people that argue that they are coaxial and should be destroyed with a single hit, remind them that a hit with a coaxial weapon lets the weapon it is attached to re-roll misses. This should shut them up. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinkenheim Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 In the new marine faqs it clarifies this point. As was said, only one weapon is lost as they are two different weapons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeattleDV8 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 BRB FAQ "Q: When a Damaged – Weapon Destroyed result is rolled and a weapon is destroyed are any built-in, combi or coaxial weapons attached to it also destroyed? (p61) A: Yes." SM FAQ "Q: If a Razorback armed with a lascannon and twin-linked plasma gun suffers a weapon destroyed result, does it destroy both weapons or just one? (77) A: Only one weapon – either the lascannon or the twinlinked plasma gun." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Im just always wondering... where does it says theyre co-axial or built in? Why do people continue seeing these words? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Dreadnoughts' DCCW's have built-in weapons. Co-axial weapons exist in Ork and Imperial super-heavies, as well as the FW versions of certain IG tanks; the Vanquisher and Conqueror have them if I remember right. Chaos vehicles get combi-weapons. That FAQ entry covers all the bases rather nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkGuard Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Im just always wondering... where does it says theyre co-axial or built in? Why do people continue seeing these words? This is something I wonder every time this question comes up. The Space Marine Codex is very specific about it not being a co-axial. In fact I believe the phrase is "lascannon and twin-linked plasma gun". This isn't co-axial, it is quite clearly two separate weapon systems. If it was co-axial or built in it would say it is like the DCCW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trefenwyd Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Yes, but a picture is worth a thousand words; people can't get over the fact that the old Stronos pattern model has all three guns mounted on the same turret, and 95% of the folks out there have never seen the co-axial rule (not in the BRB) so they make some assumptions based on intuitive thought.

Ming Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 BUT....there are many BA players using new razorbacks with one LC on the turret, and a home-made pintle mounted TLPG on a hatch. Too bad neither FW or GW has a proper turret (yet) for a Stronos pattern razor... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
