thepowerofwar Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Ok so with the way I understand things is each gun/type fully resolves (hit, wound/av pen, save, and any special effect of the weapon) before the next one is resolved. So with the magna grapple you could pull a vehicle to you then shoot a melta gun that would now be potentially in melta range. This would now make Blood Angels dreads stronger in anti AV roles. Does that sound about right to everyone? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/292378-magna-grapple-and-the-new-shot-resolution/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dam13n Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Sounds about right to me. In fact, sounds positively sneaky... I approve Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/292378-magna-grapple-and-the-new-shot-resolution/#findComment-3716881 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I like it! Sounds like a plan. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/292378-magna-grapple-and-the-new-shot-resolution/#findComment-3716895 Share on other sites More sharing options...
knife&fork Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I thought for sure that the wording of weapon would disallow this... but it doesn't! :D Great find, opens up for even more trickery with this great piece of war gear.

Great find, opens up for even more trickery with this great piece of war gear. It probably will change in the next codex, though. So enjoy it while it lasts...

knife&fork Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Oh believe me I am. Currently bringing talon dreads and deep striking land raiders in every game I can.... :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/292378-magna-grapple-and-the-new-shot-resolution/#findComment-3717037 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quixus Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 What's so good about deep striking land raiders in 7th? Don't they still (potentially) get destroyed when they scatter into a single grot?

Jolemai Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 You can get round it by declaring a tank shock and thus you will never be within 1" of an enemy unit. (I never said it's not a beardy move!)

Quixus Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 This still leaves scattering into difficult/dangerous/impassable terrain. It just that the image of a Land Raider plummeting towards a grot and then disintegrating on the tip of the grot's nose is much more ridiculous than having problems with landing on a wall or in a swamp. Tank shocking fro deep strike sounds interesting. Is it based on current rules?
