I saw Luke had a post on these . Can someone explain how these work ? I have a Barbed Heirdrule and saw that it doubles wounds ? Can someone explain ? Does it's melee and ranged double wounds ? Thanks

Barbed Hierodule doesn't have a Macro weapon but is Titanic so suffers 2x wounds vs Macro weapons that hit it.

So if you were hit by a Macro weapon that did 10 damage it would do 20 damage to the Hierodule.

So the macro only hurts me unless I'm firing at another titanic ? Is that right ? Thanks

No.

A Macro weapon does 2x damage against a Titanic target.

A Barbed Hierodule does not have a Macro weapon, so no matter what you shoot, you just do D3 damage per hit.

A Barbed Hierodule is Titanic itself so if it get shot at by a Macro weapon it suffers 2x the damage compared to a non-Titanic model would.

Wow, is it worth taking?
