Do flamers and heavy flamers ignore cover saves? If so, where would that rule be listed? Codex or BRB? Thanks in advance!

And just to be clear... By 'template' weapons, I mean the teardrop template. Not the large or small blast markers, which are not templates.

Just to be more clear it isn't the name "flamer" or "heavy flamer" that ignores cover. It is the fact that it uses a 'template' that ignores cover.

Yes, it's key to note that it's the tear template that negates cover not flamer weaponry. BA have a shotgun type weapon that uses the teardrop that always surprises folks in the fact that it negates cover as well.

I know the DE have some nasty toys just to toss one out a liquifier. I know there is an IG LRBT variant that can ignore cover.
