<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "viel of tears/harlequins vs blast templates"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/15.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net viel of tears/harlequins vs blast templates FAQ says that barrage weapons need to still roll to spot harlequins as do any other types of blast weapons.

My question then is, lets say I have a unit of wraithguard and a unit of harlequins in base to base with the wraithguard walking up a board. if a player shoots his battle cannon or earthshaker cannon at my wraithguard and are invariably hitting my harlequins with the blast template, do they still need to roll for viel of tears since harlequins are being targeted/hit as well?

I don't think a player can say "I choose to target the wraithguard and not the harlequins" with the shooting attack since harlequins are affected by the attack as well. What do you guys think?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806150.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806150.page GMT Re:viel of tears/harlequins vs blast templates ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806198.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806198.page GMT viel of tears/harlequins vs blast templates http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806204.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806204.page GMT viel of tears/harlequins vs blast templates The rules have changed.
In 5th, Barrage can shoot at targets they can't see, it just means they scatter more.

So, they roll to see as normal, but it doesn't stop the shooting.

Woops. That will teach me to read my codexes. I was under the impression it used the Night Fighting Rules.

Sorry about the mistake ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806327.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806327.page GMT viel of tears/harlequins vs blast templates http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806335.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806335.page GMT viel of tears/harlequins vs blast templates

Easy, I made a mistake, and rectified it. Even the Great Gwar! makes mistakes now and then. That is not the same as being wrong. If I had been Wrong, I would have edited my post and tried to cover up the fact.

I didn't because I was not wrong, I just made a mistake, admitted as such and fixed the mistake. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806339.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806339.page GMT viel of tears/harlequins vs blast templates http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806340.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806340.page GMT viel of tears/harlequins vs blast templates

I think it would be suspect to even suggest such a thing. Much like people in 4th trying to have an IC walk close by a unit so he couldn't be targeted separately and then whining when a battlecannon hit the troops and took out the IC as well. Just because the IC couldn't be targeted he could still be hit.

Same here, really: VoT specifically works on any unit wishing to target the harlequins. Fire at the WG instead, problem solved. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806487.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/806487.page GMT viel of tears/harlequins vs blast templates http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/807296.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/246224/807296.page GMT
