Rangaman Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I couldn't find any relevant discussion about this so I figured I would pose the question to everyone here. The Legion Falchion can take the Neutron Wave Capacitor as an upgrade for its Volcano cannon which gives it the Feedback and Shock Pulse rules. My issue came about last time I played a game where I failed to wound one of the models hit by the blast, and according to the Feedback rule any failed To Wound roll means you must roll another D6 and if it is a 1 you take a hullpoint of damage. What confuses me is the Falchion has a D strength weapon and as far as I can tell, doesn't actually roll To Wound in the traditional sense and instead uses the Destroyer table. My question is; Is the Falchion immune to the Feedback rule since it doesn't actually roll To Wound or To Penetrate, or are we meant to treat a roll of 1 on the Destroyer table as a failure?

Brofist Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I've brought this up a few times. RAW the Falchion is immune to the feedback special rule because it does not roll To Wound or to Penetrate. Instead you roll on the Destroyer Table. You can argue RAI, but RAW thems' the bananas.

Lord Blackwood Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 sounds like you should always take the upgrade if you have the points then XD Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330590-falchion-neutron-wave-capacitor/#findComment-4645806 Share on other sites More sharing options...
