Last tournament some one mentioned that you cannot hit multiple people on different levels with barrage and you cannot target models under a ledge(meaning the blast hits the level above). However I cannot find any mention of levels or how levels relate to barrage in 7th edition in the rule book. Is there nothing there and was that from 6th edition? Or do I have a reading disability and just cant find it?
you can only hit what you see, meaning you look directly under the template and see how many models are under it that you can see. if a ledge is blocking sight between the template and the models, those guys aren't hit. you can also put a template under a particular level, but you won't hit anything above that level with the template.
If the template can "see" people on multiple levels without a floor getting in the way though, you will hit guys on both levels.
Yeah, as long as it is "under" the template. There's no mention of "levels" in the ruins rules anymore and the standard 3" vertical move is gone-- you measure the actual distance you move vertically. Levels aren't really a thing anymore.
I guess that's two different things. It seems clear that you can hit multiple people on different levels if they're visible under the template.Originally Posted by mrjones
I'm not too sure. Blasts rule doesn't say you have to see them, just that they are fully or partially "under" it.
So there's no way to hide a single guardsman from barrage for instance. If some one puts a guardsman fully under a ledge using it as a ceiling there's nothing stoping the barrage player from putting the blast over his head but under the ledge correct ?
As long as they can see that guardsmen, yes.
