So for the battlewagon armed with a deff rolla. When the BW is being targetted for shooting or assault, does the unit that is targetting, measure to the deffrolla or to the hull of the BW? Same question(reversed) for when performing a ram or tank shock.

Thanks,

Quote from pg 60 of the small rulebook.
"When a unt fires at a vehicle it must be able to see its hull or turret (ignoring the vehicles gun barrels, antennas, decorative banner poles, ect.). It dos`nt specifically state whether add ons (e.g. the death roller) can be targeted.

I personly take the rule as things such as the deathroller to be in the same catagory as gunbarrels and so cannot be measure to. But that is just my inerpritation of the rule.

Sorry to thread jack but dose the siege sheild/dozerblade count for space marines. Thank you.

For shooting and assault, you measure to the hull.

For ramming, you stop when THE MODEL, comes into contact, so the Deff Rolla counts for that.

That's what I thought. Thanks Gwar!
