Didn't Thunderhammers used to do something to vehicles as well as reducing models to Initative 1?

I can't see it in the rulebook and i've never been ale to use them before the new chaos dex came out soi never actually read much about them.

Every time they hit it causes a shaken on a tank.

They used to Shake vehicles without an Init value. Concussive, which is the new uSR they have, has no effect on vehicles

aww, crud.

Thanks.

Just to play the devils advocate, while in the rule book it does say that they don't affect vehicles anymore with concussive weapons. The codex itself says that it still does, and since codexs trump the rule book, and the faqs don't say to use the warhammer 40k rulebook definition. Then I would say that they still do.

Page 99 C:SM references the rule book for what Thunderhammers do.
Blood Angels also references the BRB.
Ditto Space Wolves.
Oh look, Grey Knights also reference the BRB.

I don't have the DA or BT codexes to check those, would someone mind?

Which codex are you thinking of? Codex: Space Marines says see the rulebook, as does C:SW, C:Chaos, C:GK and C:BA.

The only ones that still shake, that I know, of is C:BT and C: DA and both of them were Errata'd to say to look at the rulebook.

haha my mistake, I was thinking of the seismic hammer in C:SM, or not, guess I was entirely mistaken.
