Two things, first in regards to the holofields, and then the barrage.
Holofields:
Barrages get this special benefit particularly because they are
assumed to contain more ammunition of larger calibre and payload and
thereby cause more damage over a radius of effect, such as a missile,
rather than a specific point, as a bullet does.
Barrages:
(Presuming you are not using the Forward Observer rules) I was
under the assumption that in NetEpic 4.1 only indirect barrages
required scatter of 2d6 in a random direction? Has this changed?
Or am I on the money in that with the FO rules in place, your
statement: ( they always scatter ) is essentially correct?

(pretty much everything), that isn't a non-physical psychic attack or
barrage attack gives an Eldar titan a holofield save. Shooting
expensive vortex missiles and warp missiles at Eldar titans is not a
cost effective ploy, since most of the time they will save and you
waste a good chunk of points.
