Hello everybody,

in the 5th edition flamers could harm the units in the transport vechiceles and/or buildings if the template was placed over one or more fire points of the vechicle/building. But in 6th edition rulebook i can't find this rule. Found only the party cocnerning buildings, but not transports.

That was not a rule, at least as far as vehicles were concerned.

You could NOT hurt units inside transport vehicles with flamers in 5th edition, and you still cannot do so in 6th edition.

Ah ok, i just found this online and was a little confused

Template weapons against transports

Template weapons such as flamers are designed to attack enemies hidden inside bunkers andbuildings and can attack models even if they are inside a vehicle. Soldiers use these weapons to shoot through fire points or vision slits to bathe the interior with burning chemicals. Alternatively,they engulf the vehicle’s hull with a constant gushof fire, downright cooking the passengers inside.To represent this, if one or more of the fire points on a building or transport (or any part of anopen-topped vehicle) fall under a template, theembarked unit suffers automatic D3 hits from thetemplate weapon. The vehicle or building itself also suffers one hit, as normal. If there are several units inside the transport, choose one unit randomly to be affected. The transported unit automatically passes any Morale checks resultingfrom the hits.

That's a house/custom rule - not in any rule book that I'm aware of (5th or 6th).

Pg 94 on Buildings.. If you shoot a template into a Fire point, you get d6 hits on the unit inside. Havent seen anything on vehicles though.

I'm not sure I believe you. But I read it on the Internet so it must be true.

Um, true. I'll go with true. There, that was easy. To be honest, I might have heard that one before.
