Title: Sidearms and other range weapons in CC
Post by: micmellon on January 29, 2009, 03:41:28 AM

How does it work with sidearms in CC? Do I have to use the RC or the CC value of the figure?

The same with real RC-Weapons?

It's In da rules...  but it is essentially the following:


SIDEARM class weapons may be used in CC and their normal damage value is allowed- for example, Joe Grunt of the Cap Light Infantry gets charged by a Karnophage  and lives through it.  On his turn he can choose to use his Pistol (using his CC score) to pistol-whip (dmg 4) or shoot (dmg 8 ).  The score to hit for shooting him is teh CC score.

That 'splain it? ;)

Relevant sections of the rules are section 8.7.5 (Close Combat and Ranged Combat), 19.1.3 (Weapon Damage)  and 21.1 (Sidearms)
