40K Rules Conundrum: Grav Weapons Enigma

Warhammer 40K

You know you can’t resist a good old-fashioned rules conundrum.  Its like trying to not look at someone getting a ticket on the roadside. A new Marine codex means a brand new conundrum!

the Lounge’s Stone Edwards writes:

“Hey everyone. Been seeing a lot of people saying that vehicles don’t get cover saves vs grav weapons since it technically doesn’t cause a pen/glance result. Also does this mean they wouldn’t get invul saves either?”

We also get this bonus conundrum:

“…since it causes an immobilized result if you roll 2 6s does that cause 3 hps? Two for each 6 and then another for an additional immobilized result.”

For the record, the Grav Weapon’s exact text reads:

“When resolving a hit against a vehicle, roll a D6 for each hit instead of rolling for armour penetration as normal.  On a 1-5 nothing happens, but on a 6, the target suffers an Immobilized result and loses a single Hull Point.”
