Multi Weak points

By azeronbloodmoone, in Rules

so with the new vehicles coming out i did ask about the multi weak points and being in 2 different arcs (the CW Tank has two different weak points side and rear)
Rules Question:
with the new tank being announce for legion clone wars. It has weak point 1 side and rear. I know the rules state you just have to have the unit leader in the weak point to get the impact 1, but with the tank because it has two weak points side by side can you get both if you have unit in both arcs (for impact 2)?

Hi azeronbloodmoone

No, you can only get up to Impact 1 from Weak Point: Sides.

not sure if Alex understood what I was asking but this was the response

No, you’d only get one like he described. The attack is made from your unit leader, so it doesn’t matter where the other models on your squad are.

what i was asking is if your leader mini was split down the center on the weak points i was asking to see if it would stack any.

You could always respond to that email directly with a follow up question if you think you weren’t clear. I could see it going either way actually.

I'm pretty sure he got what you were asking, and gave you an answer, no. Weak spots don't stack, so even if you somehow perfectly split the line. Game mechanics wise that would be difficult to legitimately pull of, and would require weird judge rulings. Thematically, it makes no sense either. The weaker side and rear armor makes sense, but it's not like its extra weak if you hit them both at once.
