Hi Peter!

How would a Rad Bomb be resolved?


In the rules it states that everything under the template must save at
-1. So how does this apply to troops being carried?

I'm inclined to treat this, as we do any other explosion that ignores
cover.

Infantry:
1) Save at -1.

Vehicles:
1) Roll the best armor save of the vehicle at -1.
2) If the troops bail out, they save at -1.

Titans/Praetorians:
1) If the shield is up, no damage possible.
2) If the shield is down, roll the best armor location hit, to save.
3) If troops are in an armored position, they are safe, just like the
crew.
4) If troops are exposed, they save at -1.


Is this correct?

Warprat ;)
