Wow missed that errata for DH concerning bolters. Did they come out with a new one since the release of RT? Great now my trigger happy players are gonna be blowing even more stuff up, although the friendly fire that seems to happen will be alot less friendly.

Nope, it's been there for months now. It was one of the first things added in the errata I believe.

@Varnias

These reasonable interpretations won't have the same randomness to them anymore if damage is supposed to be dictated by how many DoS you get. To bad...

"Anymore"? Accurate weapons already operated on a stronger variant of that rule. Consider the DoS damage to be the one you get from your skill - and the rolled damage the one from essentially good luck in hitting an enemy where it hurts.

Bolters having the Tearing quality has been the case since DH v2.0 Errata released on October 28th of 2008. happy.gif Oddly, I have kept all three versions of the errata for DH that have been released thus far. Call me sentimental, or a completist; either works.

I still have the errata from BL along with my BL copy of DH, that was my problem.

I started a similar t hread on the rules similarities and differences between Rogue Trader and Dark Heresy on the Dark Heresy forum. I really wish FFG would come up with a pdf on these differences serio.gif
