I was looking at the imperial armour apocalypse 2 and the minitor section, where it said that the minitor is front 13 side 12 and rear 14
it didnt look right so i was wondering if that is its armour or if it should be front 14 side 13 and rear 12?

it is right simply because the guns are rear mounted

does that mean people still hit rear armour in assult ?

Isn't this thread more appropriate in YMDC?

Regardless, RAW yes and no. "In close combat, however, all hits are resolved against the vehicle's rear armour, to represent the chance of attacking a vulnerable spot".
Take that as you will, but if you go strictly by RAW then hits are resolved against rear armour - but the rules are excessively clear on what is intended in this case (for once), so when you play against non-TFG resolve hits against the weakest facing.

No. Read the rules for the Minotaur, and it has a special rule in which attackers hit the side armour instead of the rear armour.
