Lord Blackwood Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 yeah you just drive over it while staring dead faced at your opponent like " Yea my glaive is about to get this angle , and tear a hole through several of your units.

noigrim Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 where does it say so? IK that they ignore all damage results save a 7 but what about the terrain?

Lord Blackwood Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 VEHICLE DAMAGE Super-heavy vehicles have armour plating and internal supports far superior to those of regular vehicles. This translates into a greater number of Hull Points, which makes them more difficult to destroy than your average tank. In addition, each time a Super-heavy vehicle suffers an Explodes! result on the Vehicle Damage table, instead of suffering the effects listed, it loses D3 additional Hull Points as well as the Hull Point it loses for the penetrating hit. Furthermore, a Super-heavy vehicle is so large and has so many crew that the effects of Crew Shaken, Crew Stunned, Immobilised or Weapon Destroyed results are ignored. However, Super-heavy vehicles are still subject to losing Hull Points from glancing and penetrating hits as usual, just not the extra damage effects from the Vehicle Damage table. Games Workshop Ltd.

noigrim Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 Found it: vehicles that move over difficult/dangerous terrain roll a dangerous terrain test, super heavies pass automaticallly said test thanks to move through cover and I could have killed those pesky spectral guard by moving 12" and firing. Perhaps I lose due to not knowing the rules ?

Jarkaira Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Remember to use Super Heavies aggressively in the movement phase. Thunderblitz is good as you can do a lot damage just by running over your enemy if for some reason he can't back off.

noigrim Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 That's another. It was my first time using a typhoon and I see that some noob mistakes were made, next game I'll be sure to blitz everyone within 12" then shoot.

Slips Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 tank shock restrictions: no flat out or disembasrk/embark superheavy tanks always count as stationary even if moving 12" Where does it say so slips? FAQ for the BRB Q: When vehicles Ram, they may only fire Snap Shots for that turn. There is no allowance that I can find for Super-heavy Tanks and Thunderblitz does not seem to affect this part of the Ram rule. According to the rules, then, If a Baneblade Rams (with a Thunderblitz roll) a Warbuggy, the Baneblade can only fire Snap Shots. Is this intended? A: Yes. https://www.warhammer-community.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/40K_The_Rules_v1.2_Nov16.pdf Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330455-super-heavy-tanks-and-terrain/#findComment-4640623 Share on other sites More sharing options...

noigrim Posted February 2, 2017 Author Share Posted February 2, 2017 Fair enough, but I can still tank shock non vehicle units and fire since then I don't fire snap shots.

Slips Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 But a Super-Heavy cant tank shock, only Thunderblitz and if you do, youre Snap Firing... So it doesnt matter what your target is...

Jarkaira Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 This got me wondering before noigrim's answer as I have always played so that I can tank shock then shoot but cannot of course ram and then shoot.

Jarkaira Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Because you do Tank Shock or Ram and then roll on Thunderblitz unless ramming other Super Heavies, Gargantuans etc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330455-super-heavy-tanks-and-terrain/#findComment-4647556 Share on other sites More sharing options...
