JamesBeadle Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 So I played my first real game of 6th ed last night against a great guy named Chris. We just played 750pts for me to wet my feet, I fielded Orks and he played marines. I was amazed at how much I had on the field compared to him. His dice betrayed him all night and that didn't help much. I have a question about Burna Boyz. The burna is said in the description to operate in two modes, template and close assault. However I can't find rules for the close assault mode at all. Do these exist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threejacks Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 They are a "Power Weapon" in assault however you cant do both in the same turn so if you burn the group up prior to assaulting then you can use the power weapon feature. As for the Power Weapon description check out the BRB pg 61 top of the page.You should probably decide with your opponent which of the 4 power weapons your burnas will represent before deciding to use this rule as theres many ways it can be interpreted. Ive heared of players gluing on axe blades to the burnas so they can say its a power axe,heh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 The general consensus I've seen is to treat them as "unusual Power Weapons", so just the user's Strength and AP3. It's an open question, tho, which will hopefully get resolved when the Ork Dex gets redone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Be sure to read the GW FAQ regarding orks. This should be covered there. -Pax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
