If a blast touches you it hits. Think 4th was last time we saw partial hits.

Yeah, partials have been out for a while. Ever since Blasts started using the scatter dice instead of a to-hit roll.

Unless you're talking about half strength against vehicles being gone, which is new for sixth.

5th had it as well for vehicles, it droopped to half strength which usually did nothing .

In 6th, every model under the blast template suffer the full effects.

The person was asking about *partial* hits, where unless you were completely under the blast you were only hit on a 4+. Those were removed in 5th

There was that lovely joke that if you hit a monsterous creature with a blast it wasn't completely under the blast as it had a bigger base than the blast.

It's not the size of the blade, it's how you use it.
