Reply To: Rules Questions

Thanks for the clarification.

The other issue that came up and caused some confusion on one of the other tables related to Stuarts.

These are 8+ vehicles and have the special rule of Vulnerable. So the question was when shooting at the side of this tank the armor value is effectively 6+ (-1 for side and additional -1 for Vulnerable, or even 5+ if hitting from the rear).

So can you shoot with small arms as its now the same as soft skinned but then use the vehicle damage table with D6-3 if you roll a 6 or would you still need to use a heavy weapon even though you are effectively shooting at a 6+ or 5+ target. I also suppose thinking about this a bit more that the same would be true for firing at the side or rear of 7+ transports.
