Hi guys,

I am sure I am going to get grief from some folks, but I was told that Haywire Grenades were a one time use weapon, I have looked over the Codex and couldn't find any reference to them being a single use item, can someone help me out here?

thanks for your time
Alaster

there arn't any grenades that are one use only(the Holy Orb of Antioch isn't a "grenade")

the Haywire grenades are simply a piece of wargear that allows a single special attack in CC against vehicles.

Does it say -haywire grenade- one shot/use per game?

If not, it's not

I had the same discussion in reverse with a BA player and his Blodstrike missiles.. he assumed that he had an infinite supply...

The confusion stems from page 63 of BGB:

"...so each model using them can only ever make one attack, regardless of the number of Attacks on their profile and any bonus attacks."

Some players misinterpret this to mean that grenades are a one shot item. That is NOT what this rule means. This rule means that a model using a grenade to attack a vehicle only gets a single attack in that assault phase. The model is free to make another attack with the grenade in subsequent assault phases.

It's a misunderstanding that, although uncommon, does pop up from time to time. Be patient with your opponent and show them where they made their mistake. If they argue further, ask them to find anywhere that it says grenades are one use weapons.
