I can't seem to find the old Reaper Bolt Thrower rule for multishots anywhere in the new book.
Did they just sneak in a downgrade of the BT?

Just when I thought they had finally gotten it at the right points this happen -_- makes it 5-10 points less worth imo

You can find it in the middle of the AB with the blurb about the RBT. Just read the whole text and it says it there.

So, either 6 x S4 AP shots…or…1 x S6 no AS and penetrates ranks. Check it out.

Nono :oops:

Not that rule.


Let me quote the 7'th ed line I'm missing in 8'th

"The reaper bolt thrower is incredibly accurate and is not subjected to the multiple shots special weapon rule"


Where can I find a comp0arable line in 8'th ed?

since what I get from this is if I want to fire multishohts I'll be fireing at -1 BS the way it looks right now...

The other onbe wouldn't be sneaky, that would have been outragious

Simple…it doesn't have the Multiple Shots special rule like our RXBs do, so you can fire your 6 barbs without -1 BS.
