[Tactical] Ion CANNON READYY!!!

Auto -hits will ALWAYS HIT even if its AUTO-miss. therefore, stormblades +UA +full WA = 11 dudes with pow 14 range weapons. Heres the cheese, stormgunner allow other models in the unit to auto the target hit by the storm gun. Range attack rules state that if range attack beyond the stated rng of the weapon will atuo miss, but due to the ability of stormgunners......auto miss will change to auto hits....... WAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHA 11 dudes with pow 14 rng AOE 3 KAKAKAKAKKAKA

It does not work. The auto-hits/misses ruling only applies to special rules and not core rules. Refer to the chart on how to resolve attack rolls. Once you are out of range, you jump to step 7, since you are out of range, there is no hits at all and you go to step 8 which is where your AOEs deviate. The part where your auto-hits/misses kick in is step 5 which you skip entirely when you are out of range.

This is obviously not an army list. Therefore, the thread title has been changed to [Tactical]. Please read the following link for more info:-
