Fracture

How Fracture works

If a damage roll of 6+ is achieved (6 or higher, including mods), it causes an explosion:

• Place a 3 inch blast template over the closest enemy model in the target unit.
• All models even partially under the template are eligible models for this Fracture damage. This overrides Target Limit and closest-model allocation for those template-affected models.
• Roll 1 damage die against each model under the template.
• Fracture damage inherits the original attack's model removal timing.
• If the weapon has RoF or Att 2 or more, resolve each explosion separately.
• Explosions caused by this effect cannot trigger further explosions (no chain reaction).

> Example: If a Fracture weapon rolls two successful 6+ damage results, resolve two separate explosions. Damage caused by those explosions cannot trigger another Fracture explosion.

Example

If a Fracture weapon rolls two successful 6+ damage results, resolve two separate explosions. Damage caused by those explosions cannot trigger another Fracture explosion.

Frequently asked questions

What does Fracture do?

If a damage roll of 6+ is achieved (6 or higher, including mods), it causes an explosion:

What is the main result of Fracture?

A Fracture weapon creates an explosion whenever one of its damage rolls reaches 6 or higher after modifiers. Each explosion uses a 3-inch blast template and cannot cause another Fracture explosion.

What limits should I remember for Fracture?

Explosions caused by this effect cannot trigger further explosions (no chain reaction). Damage caused by those explosions cannot trigger another Fracture explosion.

What happens after Fracture is resolved?

Finish any remaining steps of the current command, attack or timing window, apply the restrictions or lasting effects stated in Fracture, and then continue play.
