Hi Greg,

If you shoot at infantry with such a weapon, it counts as a single rifle shot without a blast radius. The difference is the strength of the penetration.

For example, if you shoot at regular troops with a bazooka and you hit, it has a pen value of 5+. The regular troops have a damage value of 5, which results in a zero that cannot be rolled. As a 1 is always a failed roll, you kill the enemy model with a 2+.

Is that realistic? No!
Does that make any sense? No!

Unfortunately, this is just one of many rules in this game that have not been thought through to the end.
A 1” blast radius against infantry would have made sense in my opinion. Especially because these weapons are so expensive.
