        I disagree. IMHO, this ruling states that no matter what you
roll on 2d6, you will always only place a BM if you hit with one of
them. It makes no mention of what was asked in the Tyranid question.
Jervis, to the best of my knowledge, continues to be consistent inis
ruling and annoyingly vague with his wording. (grr)
        Jervis does not deny that the Eldar titan described above
fires 2d6-2 AT shots when it has 2BMs on it.
