The rule for meltas is roll 2D6 for armor pen if within half weapon range and ordnace barrage roll 2D6 for armor pen. Ive always played were you roll 2D6 and take the highest but ive heard that your supposed to add the 2D6 to the weapons strength. So can anyone clear this up? add the 2 dice rolls to weapon strength? Or take the highest roll? One last question is do both sponsons count as destroyed on a "weapon destroyed" roll Or do they count as individuel weapons? Because you pay for them as one but dont shoot with them as one.

Yes, you add them together. If it wanted you to roll 2D6 and pick the highest, it would have said that (ex. Difficult Terrain tests).

Meltas are a special weapon that works better in closer range specifically meant to open tanks hence 2d6 roll for armour penetration. Ordanance weapons are a big blast marker meant to shake around and have a slightly less chance of opening a tank than melta hence the 2d6 and pick the highest.

Yeah, you add the 2D6. A meltagun for instance, if you are within 6" of your target you would roll 2D6+8 for penetration.

These aren't really proposed rules. Make sure you post in the right forum.
