Deamons are not used to being in metal cans. so they can't function quite as well as a normally manned tank

Deamons are so blinded by fury they cannot think clearly so shoot worse

Because it slightly counter balances the ignores stunned/shaken condition

take your pick really. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7510674.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7510674.page GMT Daemonic Possessed Vehicles

I'll take the so angry they can't shoot straight ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7510691.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7510691.page GMT Re:Daemonic Possessed Vehicles http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7511809.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7511809.page GMT Daemonic Possessed Vehicles are are so scary!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7512194.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7512194.page GMT Daemonic Possessed Vehicles BS for some reason. Then again, they're also the only demons I'm aware of that canonically man cannons (on those chariots) so it'd make sense they know how to shoot other things.

Due to that though, I'd go with the whole "It's not even their body" explanation. How well do you think you'd function if you were possessing the body of say, an octopus?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7512252.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7512252.page GMT Daemonic Possessed Vehicles
Also, let's not forget that BS3 is not actually bad. Imperial Guardsmen are trained by the Imperium before being let loose on the battlefield after all.

For a more accurate look at an untrained markman, check out The Lost And The Damned in Imperial Armour 13. They all have WS and BS 2, which I think is a lot more "normal".]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7512335.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631473/7512335.page GMT
