When firing a 7" or 10" blast weapon at a Gargantuan Creature or Super Heavy Vehicle, the targetting player may declare a 'Bring it Down!' Shot.OIf so, do not roll to scatter - Instead, roll to hit with a +2 modifier to BS (to represent the massive blast and even larger target.) If a hit is scored, roll a D3 for the 7" template or a d6 for the 10" template. That many hits are inflicted, as opposed to the normal 1. Roll to wound or penetrate as normal.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/530196/5677280.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/530196/5677280.page GMT Apocalypse 'Bring it Down!' rule.

And to be honest, do those weapons even need a bonus? If anything they need a nerf.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/530196/5680699.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/530196/5680699.page GMT Re:Apocalypse 'Bring it Down!' rule.

The whole point of large blast weapons is that they decimate lots of little targets and comparatively suck against a single big target.

And said proposed nerf would do what..? And, consider C:Necrons, they have like, 1 blast weapon, and they're one of the best codices (if not the best codex) in the game >_>]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/530196/5680713.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/530196/5680713.page GMT Apocalypse 'Bring it Down!' rule. apoc blast weapons, some of which have templates so large that even with maximum scatter they will still hit the original target.

And thus nobody used superheavies again.

As opposed to right now, where 'He who brings more super heavies wins the game.' It's not a massive nerf, I'm just trying to make Super Heavies slightly easier to take out because currently, Apocalypse games boil down to 'who has the biggest model.']]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/530196/5682562.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/530196/5682562.page GMT
