[Archive] Ashstorm question

thewizardofoz:

How does Ashstorm affect warmachines?

Bloodbeard:

As any other unit.

If it shoot using BS it’s -2 to hit. This would work for boltthrowers, organ guns and hellcannons etc.

It fighting in close combat the crew has -1 to hit.

An the machine is flammable. Taking double wounds.

Grimbold Blackhammer:

Organ Guns auto-hit and Hellcannons use an artillary die so neither of those are effected. Most war machines in fact would not have their shooting ability affected.

Sorry - meant hellBLASTER volleygun ofcause. ... Hell this and hell that. The three barrel gun of the empire. It works on that.

Thought the organgun worked in the same way.

Let's hope it does in a couple of weeks! :)

Grimbold Blackhammer:

It might. The Organ Gun is the last of the ‘autohit’ weapons out there with all the others being phased out over 7th edition. I expect a Dwarf engineer will be able to park himself next to it and use his ballistic skill but I suppose we’ll have to wait and see.

I’m curious to see if/how our book impacts theirs.
