It's a heavy flamer.

What about the pintle mount?

Yup. She's an anxiety wolf. Relieves ours by causing it in everyone else.

Sorry, i got mixed up.

These ones are equipped with a storm Bolter pintle turret (150 m; -/-/6; 1d10+8 X; Pen 5; Clip 60; reload full; tearing)
And a hull-mounted Front-Facing heavy flamer turret (30 m; s/-/-; 1d10+5 E; Pen 4, Clip 20; reload 2 full; flame, spray)

Light 'em up boys!

Kestyr, on the Storm bolters and do very bad things the Horde. Someone else on that Flamer.

Oh, and do I need to roll Drive or something? Or can I use the Chimera to charge the Horde and squish 'em?

I'm under the impression they're all on the rooftops...although I suppose you could ram a building and knock it down with them on top.  'Twould be rather amusing.

Feel like I might drop a building on the gathered, panicked crowd which would be bad totally something the Imperium would do.

There is no friendly fire, there are only those inferior weaklings who can't run fast enough.

It's always been amusing to me that you can't fire into melee on TT, since 90% of the factions would totally do so.  I think the Eldar are the only ones that *might* not.

Eldar might not, I agree. Tau wouldn't. Dark Eldar and Chaos should have roll WP or Leadership to NOT do it.

Why is there a penalty for shooting into melee then if you cant?

Just TT doesn't let you shoot into melee; I imagine it's for "balance" because imagine how deadly Tau would be while you're busy gutting a firing line in CQC.

OW is less abstracted than TT, and therefore we can get away with a simple "trying not to hit those poor sodsyour allies" penalty.  It really ought to be a -30, but again, balance.

Have these non-combatants at least had the sense to run from the monsters? Preferably behind our Chimeras.

Edit: RL is keeping me on my toes, sorry about that folks. I'm planning to try to maneuver the Chimera past the bullet sponges civilians so that whoever is on the flamer (now I know it isn't the driver) can do their thing.

Assuming the civvys are out of the way and some of the 'gaunts are on the ground now, if some lunatic was to ram a horde with a Chimera does it still do AP damage to the horde?

If you wanted to simply destroy the house and cause it to collapse, you could blast it with the flamer. That would probably polish it off. Added bonus, it would catch some of the enemy in the fire. Alternately, if you want to smash the Chimera into the house and run over some of the enemy, that would probably not hurt your vehicle.

Damned autocorrect, that should have said horde, not house. However, your answer gives me a few more options.

Edit: I'm a wee bit confused. I thought the driver just drove and the weapons are operated by separate gunners?

The are, which is why I'm just kind of sitting here. Is there something I can do from the driver's seat to contribute to our efforts? Ram the building?

You can operate the main gun and drive at the same time.

Well, then. Off to roll BS.

Main gun on this is a flamer, correct? Is there a target for the flamer? Seems like the hordes are on the roofs (rooves?) or do I have it AFU?

That's how I've understood it as well, hence my bbq-ey goodness post. If I've got the wrong end of the stick I'll edit my actions.

I thought for flamers you just rolled straight horde damage?

Far as I know we still have to roll to hit, then if that's successful it hits 1/4 range rounded up times.

Well, you don't normally roll BS for Flame weapons, and I don't believe that changes even though we're in a vehicle.

Ah yeah, I forgot that bit. Those little sods have to make an Ag test or be purged in fire.
