Brother Heinrich Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 So question for you guys, I know in 6th Gets Hot! now affects vehicles by doing 1hp of damage if you don't make a 4+ saving throw, but what if the weapon doesn't have Gets Hot! listed in its weapon profile? I was looking through my copy of IA: Apocalypse (2013) at the Chaos Relic Predator and both the unit entry on Pg. 59, as well as the weapon profile on Pg. 138 do not list Gets Hot! under the weapon type for the Plasma Destroyer. Of note is the fact that just above it both the Plasma Cannon and Plasma Blaster entries on Pg.138 do have Gets Hot! in the Weapon Type. As written I would construe that to mean the Gets Hot! rule does not affect this particular plasma weapon. Is there anything in the main rulebook or elsewhere that states that Gets Hot! is implied with all plasma weapons or is that just a common assumption?

Brother Casman Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Gets Hot! does not affect that weapon - while the various man-portable ones do, the Plasma Destroyer and the Leman Russ Executioner Plasma Cannon do not get hot at all. So, the plasma destroyer is not alone in this regard. I think it's just a common assumption that all plasma weapons get hot.

Brother Heinrich Posted March 15, 2014 Author Share Posted March 15, 2014 Awesome, just as I thought, time to start planning some additions to the 15th company :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288099-gets-hot-on-chaos-relic-predators/#findComment-3622013 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that, and last edition didn't let Gets Hot! affect Vehicles anyway so Vehicle-only weapons usually didn't have it included, so lucky them!
