Hi guys.
In the previous version, attacks in CC by monstruous creature did not allowes saved, as for power weapons. Is it still available in the 6th ed rules, or does the ennemy can do his save ?
thanks !

Yes, I read this, I just wanted to hace confirmation of that. Another point, MC don't use S+2D6 to penetrate vehicules, but now only S+1D6. It become quite impossible to destroy big vehicules, as Land Raider or other Necron stuff, if you play tyranid for example. Am I right ?

I don't recall the AP of Monstrous Creatures off the top of my head, but I do know that they can still pop vehicles. A MC has the ability to halve his attacks & double their strength. So, he can still take care of armor.

MC are better at killing vehicles in CC than last ed IMHO.
I would much rather double my strength(Max 10) than roll 2D6
And you get +1 to damage due to the AP2

To be fair, though, just about EVERYTHING's better at killing vehicles in 6th.
