Hello there BoLS peeps. I have discovered a rather disturbing conundrum. The other day I had my tenth or twelfth game of 7th edition, Tau+Imperium versus Blood Angels. One of my tanks was parked at the bottom of a building, almost inside of it, aiming out a doorway picking off targets. Well, those sneaky Blood Angels (we all know just how sneaky) deep-struck behind that tank with a couple melta guns. Needless to say, that tank did not make up its point cost in that game and blew up like it was the 4th of July. It exploded out five inches! Boom! Even took one Blood Angel marine down with it in death (ok, so almost an 1/8th of its points were made back).
Then we realized something.
I had Tau Broadsides sitting in the upper levels of the building. My friend pointed out that they should be getting hit by the exploding tank too. I disagreed at first and, silly me thinking of 6th, said "Nah, they're on a different level from the blast."
My friend immediately dived into the rulebook and we discovered that there is no longer any written rules pertaining to levels and explosions. Not even templates and levels. For all intents and purposes, if a template is centered over a unit in a building with multiple levels, then it's going to hit EVERYTHING under that template regardless of what level it may have been targeted at.
So...forum fellows and rule hunters. What say thee?
