Question about warhammer 8th, Dwarfs and flame cannons
« on: July 30, 2010, 01:42:38 am »
My first (and likely far from last) bit of confusion with the new rules and the FAQ

In the newly released FAQ it says "-Flame Cannon, Firing the Flame Cannon, Change to “Flame Cannons shoot using the Fire Thrower rules."
In the fire thrower rules it says "unless otherwise specified, a fire thrower has the following profile -- Rng:n/a  S:5  Flaming attacks"

However the dwarf book has the flame cannon as "Rng: 12  S:5  Wounds: D3  Armour save: -2"
Bloody contradictory FAQ, I have no idea which profile to use now. The extra range and the save modifier would be useful to say the least.

But their hunger? That is beyond our ability to slay.

i would say use the profile in the army book for range, str, wounds caused and save mod but fire it like is says in the rule book when it comes to how to place the template. i am just guessing though, i don't own either book, but since it's "otherwise specified" in the dwarf book i'd roll with those rules.
