Adeptus Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I had a look but couldn't see an answer anywhere. Do flamers auto-hit when firing overwatch? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336676-flamers-on-overwatch/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Orlock Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Yes, per pg. 182 under heading '3. Overwatch' It's described are being resolved just like a normal shooting attack. Assuming the charge started within range of the flamer, a prerequisite to make a shooting attack, the flamer's special rules'll kick in and it'll hit automatically with needing to roll, and thus without needing to roll a six.

Captain Coolpants Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 That's definitely a difference you need to pay attention too. Means your flamers can only overwatch if the enemy was within 8". Last edition there was no limit. (some flamers obviously have a greater range) Adeptus 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336676-flamers-on-overwatch/#findComment-4819847 Share on other sites More sharing options...
