Hello, I may be being a bit thick here, but I can't seem to find the rules for krak grenades in the 40k rulebook..... There is mention of them in the ork codex, but I can't find the rules in there either.... I know I'm new to 40k, but am I missing something obvious here?

Ta!

A model using a grenade makes a single attack in HtH against a vehicle.
Krak =S6
a model with a krak grenade, when assaulting a vehicle can elect to use the grenade forfeiting all other bonuses to make a single attack to place a grenade.

Ok, fair enough. Thanks. But how do you know that? Where did you read it?

BGB, page 39 for basic Grenade rules, and page 72 for using grenades against vehicles.

I'm sorry, but I must still be being stupid. Having had a look at page 39, I can find no mention of krak grenades. I can only find entries for Frag, Plasma and Photon......I'm fairly sure that I'm missing something here

Try page 72 then. It has a list of grenades and their armour penetration.

Page 39 deals with normal assaults, in which krak grenades have no use. You've got to go to the vehicles in assault section, where it should mention grenades.

Ah. Yep. There we go. Got it. Thank you very much to you for helping me chaps.

Cheers.
