J!MM!L!C!OUS Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Hi There, This should be a fairy easy question for you vets... I'm fairly new to 40K, so is my mate, he plays CSM I play SM. Yesterday an interesting situation occurred and I would love some help on interpreting the rules. So here's a situation and a question for you: Basically, Fabius Bile shoots at the front armour of my dreadnaught with his little needly gun thingy without a strength value. What happens next? A] Nothing happens on the grounds that the gun has no Str value to add to a D6, end of story. B] *Something* else happens instead to compensate for Bile's super killyness, maybe something to do with his needly-thingy wounding on a 2+ Your thought's on this would be very much appreciated.

Valkyrion Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I can't check any FAQ, but as the codex stands, he rolls a D6 for armour penetration and that's it. It would be D6+Strength but his weapon has neither a strength value nor a sniper rule, so he can't damage any armour.

Dan VK Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Valkyrion is correct; Fabius Bile's Xyclos Needler is incapable of harming vehicles. After battle he cries into his ubermensch serum because of it. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/236762-fabius-bile-vs-dreadnaught/#findComment-2854013 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acebaur Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Though I don't know the exact wording of the rule myself. If his rule does not having anything in it that says how it damages vehicles, then it simply rolls a D6 which cannot harm anything. So, no, he cannot hurt a vehicle.
