So sayeth the Ginger, FEAR the Ginger!
Ordnance weapons work the same for all vehicles. Like the Blast template, you roll for scatter + 2d6 - BS for the Large Blast, if the vehicle has line of sight to it's target. If it is an Indirect Ordnance attack (ie - no line of sight), then the full 2d6 is scattered if an arrow is rolled on the scatter die. You should also note that an indirect Ordnance attack requires that the vehicle not move at all during its movement phase as well.
that kid is a bad ass.
Bryan's existence makes this a bad idea.
Hey guys, Please keep in mind that you can only fire indirect with ordanance if the weapon has barrage. So a Leman Russ is direct fire only. 2d6 -bs
OK so now that we know how to shoot them I have a question about Ordnance against vehicles. The Rule book states you get to roll 2 dice and take the highest for AP but...What Armor side does Ordnance hit a vehicle on? Tim and I came to the conclusion it must be the side facing the shooter. But the book is not to clear.

But the book is not to clear.It is the direction of origin. Unless it is barrage then it is based on the hole.
