eudean600 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 hi guys and gals i have recently bought a thunderfire cannon for my dark angels army its looks a really cool model and for only 100pts for what it can do is awesome however can this model be used the same as a barrage weapon or does it have to have line of sight any help would be awesome as i have a game at the weekend with it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viridia Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 From looking at Codex; Space Marines, it's a LOS weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eudean600 Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 LOS weapon ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viridia Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Line-Of-Sight Weapon. The Codex doesn't list it anywhere as being either indirect fire or a barrage weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alys Dwr Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 No idea, it's not in my codex :) Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatcrusade08 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 unless it states its a barrage weapon (which it dont) then normal artillery rules apply as per the BRB.. infact both the cannon and the crewman need to draw LOS to fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 As Alys Dwr said, it isn't in the DA Codex :lol:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Immolator Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 As far as i remember the Codex space marines has two or three modes/shell types to use with the cannon.I dont remember them on the top of my head and i dont have the book with me(doh!).But i think one of them is indeed an indirect strike weapon(no los needed). The weapon is not included in our codex so you might be far better asking the general marine subforum to get precise info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabbadoo Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 All of the Thunderfire Cannon's firing modes require Line-Of-Sight. None of the firing modes has the Barrage special rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
