40K Intro- Warhammer 5th edition Tutorial Series 3 Part 4 assaulting a vehicle

[Adrian890722]

nice edit on rolls at 2:50 ;p

[BigAl4123]

Wait, i dont understand, if you get a penetrating hit does it mean you have to roll to see if it explodes, is imobalized, etc?

[CaptCamping]

You are right I found that re-reading that part of the codex. Also I found out reading in some forums if you find a way of inmobilizing a vehicle on the same turn you can assault it and make auto hits.

[CaptCamping]

I dont understand the part of assaulting the front, side or rear armor. If I assault a vehicle in the front it counts as being assaulted from the rear?

[doremicom]

@CaptCamping yes, the reason behind it was more from a game balancing issue than anything else.

[sxebayard]

tell how to calculate assulting a vehicle from the begining

[petefp57]

can orks disembark from a vehicle shoot and assualt in th esame turn if so wuts the rules?

[zottnjoe]

Nice vids man !

they're really alot of help

[doremicom]

@zottnjoe your very welcome. Glad they helped.

[BrockUman]

Man, your tutorials are awesome. I'm finally learning how to play the game and how things work. Just one last video on how to do close combats with numerous squads and i'm set to play.

[doremicom]

@BrockUman Thank you so much for the comment. I actually had exactly what you're asking for, filmed onto dv tape.... and the tape split as I was pulling it to the computer to edit. The combat had two commanders and 4 other units in one close combat craziness. Literally, I don't think you'd ever see anything more difficult in a natural game. If I can get local help to film it again, I might try to recreate it.

[tordenskrald]

it is actually a bit frightening how the orkz and the genestealers teared the poor SMs apart in this vid :-\

[alphawesker13]

i have a question about how to assault a vehicle,my friend confused me after our battle today, i play chaos sm and he plays sm. i had a demon prince with mark of tzeentch (bolt of change and warptime) and i assaulted his vindicator and i began the attack, but he said i need to roll 2 D6 for each of the 4 attacks (making 8 D6 die rolls alltogether) and add the initiative of the dp to the roll to see if i glance/ pen, is this correct? if not can you plz tell me how to assault correctly with a dp.

[taylorvincent]

weapon score? :D

weapon skill :p

good tutorials

[Clawlessic]

now i get how this works aswell thanks for that!

[darthkilzone]

what does iniative

[NuadhaPrime]

The Genestealers in the example are not armed with Scything Talons.

[doremicom]

All of the genestealers in this tutorial have scything talons.

[nickthewarlord]

If the rhino tank shock the genestealers, would the stealers attack the back armor or the front?

[doremicom]

Phenominal question. The attack auto hits, but when determining if the genestealer penetrates the armor, the genestealer is attacking the FRONT armor.

[magnusprime10]

ok 2 squads are in combat. ork vs space marines. and another squad of orks assaults from behind the marines already in combat how do we calculate that ?as well as how do we resolve a situation where niether side inflicts a wound in close combat?

[doremicom]

that scenario is coming up in a near future video.

[magnusprime10]

I was in a siuation where my warboss assaulted a dreadnaught the dreadnaught missed his attacks and my war boss was able to attack 7 times. he hit all seven times.... and penetrated since his strength was 10 does that mean that i roll to penetrate for each hit? cuz thats what we did and i took a weapon off and imobilized it and also made it blow up.

[doremicom]

This is incorrect. Walkers that are not immobilized use their front armor during an assault. You still needed to roll to determine if you glanced, penetrated, or caused no damage (with 1s which would have equaled 11 instead of 12).

[magnusprime10]

i undestand that . but also dont we roll a

d6 and add it to our strength? which since i already had a strength of 10 i added the d6 which would mean that most likely i would penatrate which we did all that. and it exploded.

[magnusprime10]

sooo

str+d6 to see if penetrate.

then roll to see what happens?

[doremicom]

yep.

[JavlinVII]

I have a question. What good are AP values if the only one you get a bonus for is AP 1?

Could you do a demo on shooting at a vehicle or building, I have a hard time understanding the rulebook.

[doremicom]

when shooting at vehicles AP values other than 1 is not useful, but when shooting at troops, you can negate their armor saves if the AP of the weapon is equal or lower than their armor save. Often useful.

[redeye117]

That is some insane roll..

Getting a 6 to hit, then another 6 to pennetrate.. then A 3.. for rending then another 6 for explosion..

If only i can roll that great when i using a Assault cannon...

[kenchow]

man all ur vids are awsome. maybe if ur mates like warhammer, u shud make a company for in ur spare time like miniwargaming!?! I know there a ful time company but........

[pcpwnage]

how do you find out how far jump pack marines move

[doremicom]

that is listed on page 52 of the 5th edition rule book under the Jump Infantry movement section.

[pcpwnage]

thanks

[papercutdan]

y didnt the space marines get armor saves

[doremicom]

the space marines did get armor saves, those saves were rolled at the conclusion of part 3, and the marines rolled A LOT of 1s and 2s.
