If one unit rolls several penetrating hits on a vehicle, do you roll on the damage table for every hit? Even if the vehicle is wrecked by hull point loss?

Also, is this stated in the BRB anywhere?

You would roll them all, yes, as they all happen simultaneously.

The last sentence of the Penetrating Hits section, p74.

Thanks for the quick replies and clarification. Much appreciated.

I was under the impression that you removed hull points first, before rolling on the vehicle damage chart, and surely if the vehicle is wrecked by hull point loss you wouldn't roll on the damage chart. I could be wrong though, don't have my rulebook to hand.

No, a vehicle can still explode if the penetrating hit that removes it's last hull point hits a 6 on the damage chart.

Ok, thanks. I swear I read that you remove hull points first but I've either read it wrong or missed something somewhere, probably in the penetrating hits section. Thanks.

its so that if the pen scores an explodes result, the explodes still happens, possibly causing more damage.
