When rolling for armor penetration against vehicles in assault, tankhuntaboys roll 2D6 + 6; is that rolled once and then multiplied for each model attacking, or do you roll 2D6 for each model?

It's individual models attacking a vehicle. You might as well ask if a group of bolter marines shooting a Rhino in the rear roll once or per hit. You roll for each hit, just as you roll for every bolter shot that hits. Every tankbusta bomb is one attack.

OK. So this is the order:

1). Roll to hit to attack with grenades (if necessary);
2). Roll to penetrate from successful hits, separately; e.g., with 5 hits, roll 5 2D6s for penetrations.
3). Separate glances from penetrations from misses, and roll damage resolutions, as normal.

Just weird for me. Never used grenades as an Ork, and the 2D6 was throwing me off a bit.

Think of them as orky meltabombs, with a little less kick..

I've only been the victim of meltabombs, so haven't paid them much mind.

Does my sequence above work?

Looks good to me.

Models using grenades only get one attack each with them, but a whole unit can blow almost anything wide open (usually killing half the TB squad as well..)

TB?

TankBustas. But who cares about the lives of them, they knew the risks when they signed up for the job.

Half? T4 and 6+ armor still doge some of that S3 hit, gets even better if underneath a KFF.

used as a generalization, not as a mathhammered percentage.

In my case it winds up the same, as the dice gods hate me
