WaW - HE shells for tanks and support guns?
- Thread starter n815e

It is a bit usless, when shooting at size 1 models we measure the distance between the models and not from the targets center to give it a bigger blast area. Make the area any bigger and the shells would be to devestating for gameplay - unless you use the BFE rules and models only take a D6 damage in the blast. I don't normally like to use house rules, but I'm afraid in this game I'm having to.
The funny thing is that we had all guns initially desgined like the guns in BF:Evo. A secondary weaker D6 effect in the bigger blast area.
After the switch to the general 3" FZ, we also went back to only 1 die type per LZ to keep things straight.
The LZ were also made smaller to throttle down the kill velocity...
(Like hithero said)
To be honest: I like the current system more! It keeps things simple and fits the overall desgn of the game nicely.
If you want a weaker secondary LZ" effect try a D6 in a 1" bigger LZ as a house rule.
Example: M3 75mm gun; 48”; D10+2; Lethal Zone/1”, Slow
Special Rule: This weapon will roll 1D6 extra Damage Dice against every model within 2” of the centre of the model its first Damage Dice is allocated to - these extra models need not be in Line of Sight.

I would like to see different stats for each gun based on its HE and its AP rounds, anybody else?
I'm not sure there be that much difference game-wise to warrent it? A small blast area using the guns damage dice works fine, although saying that, should a 75/L24 not be more equal to the 75/L70 in terms of HE? But then again the short 75 has a bigger blast (can you tell I'm typing as I'm thinking?Rabidchild said:
) HE is working fine for us measuring between models rather than from the centre.
