Scenario: An IG company command squad that includes a Master of Ordnance (or in my regiment, a Forward Observer), and the company commander issues the "Bring it Down" order to the command squad against an enemy vehicle. This makes all there shots count as twin-linked. What effect would this have with the M.O.O.'s artillery bombardment attack? Does this allow me to re-roll the scatter dice?
As far as I know this is the only time a blast/ordnance weapon would become twin-linked (again, as far as I know, my knowledge is by no means exusative). I've asked around, and can't seem to get a straight answer. I also can't seem to find this covered in the main rulebook. If it IS, please post a page number.
Thanks. Automatically Appended Next Post: Never mind, I'm a slow. I just found it on page 30, under how blast weapons work. I have to re-roll both the scatter dice AND the 2D6. My bad.

Aye, lots of rules questions can be answered just by finding the right page in the rulebook.
Still nothing wrong in asking where it could be ofc.

No, you're not.
Sometimes you can read the same thing 4 times, but on the 5th reading finally see what you missed.
Happens a lot even on these forums.
Someone asks a question, if you give them a page # as well as an answer, they get to reference the rulebook too.
Helps to remember it better.

Dont worry, I ask plenty of "dumb" questions, but the people on this forum are kind enough to bear with me and as Spet said, when pointed to the right page, you won't forget and also is great to reference it in a game if your friend questions it (I usually write in my codex what page i would find it in for future reference).
