Recently dug this out of my bits box. It's from 2nd ed, but I can't remember what used it specifically, I assume a barrage attack of some kind.

It would obviously have to loose the d12 required to decide the angle but it would be sweet to see it used again for artillery.

I would like to see that for some units...
Guard mortar teams and the SM whirlwind for a start...

Those were the days. Days of glory, honor, and weird shaped explosions

An easier way would be to roll as normal for the first blast then just roll a D6 and a scatter dice for each subsequent shot using the last blast as the start point.

I play games that use similar rules and it works well. Simulates a barrage quite well.

That's the Thudd Gun template.
