i have a scenario that a hit a enemy unit in (no terrain) with a crack missile but the missile scatters and hits a building. The buildig has 3 levels and in each level has a model .Which model the missilewill hit , i choose or in the same level with the unit a target?

Then my children, I shall listen for your call in whatever realm of death holds me, and come I shall, no matter what the laws of life and death forbid. At the end I will be there. For the final battle. For the Wolftime."Leman Russ

I assume by "crack missile" you mean "frag missile" (since kraks don't scatter), and by "building" you mean "ruin".

The problem is that the rules for resolving blasts in a ruin is that they only cover what happens when you're actively firing at units that are within the ruin already. They don't actually cover what happens when you target a unit that is outside the ruin and the blast scatters into it.

Personally, I'd play that you only hit the models on the same level as the unit you intended to shoot. That is, if your target is a unit on the ground outside the ruin, then only models that are on the ground level inside the ruin can be hit if it scatters there.

It's not strictly RAW, but that seems like the easiest way to resolve it.

The missile hits the model in the same level as the model you originally targeted. It's all on pg 100.

Given that no level was initially targetted, you are wrong on this. Page 100 under scattering deals with the case where you target a ruin and scatter into another ruin OR where there was no level ("If there is no corresonding level") then it is the HIGHEST level

So to the OP: Highest level. See Blast weapons, page 100, right hand column
