Pg 125, Table 6-9 Ranged Weapon, under Solid projectile

Shotgun (Pump-Action) Basic 30m S/–/– 1d10+4 I 0 8 2 Full Scatter 5kg Average
Shotgun                            Basic 30m S/–/– 1d10+4 I 0 8 2 Full Scatter 5kg Average

 

I supposed the second Shotgun is the 2 shells capacity double-barrel shotgun as the previous editions.

Pg 125, Table 6-9 Ranged Weapon, under Las Weapons

Triplex Pattern Lasgun    Basic 100m S/– /– 1d10+3 E 0 60 Full — 4.5kg Rare

With the description on page 126, the information given comparred to the stats seems to be in contradiction (no reliable quality, no other shooting mode apart from S/-/-)

The description for Bullpup Lasgun is named 'Bullpup' instead of 'Bullpup Lasgun'.

I saw no line on pages 158 - 159 for the Baneblade's Co-axial Autocannon, even though they were mentioned specifically under the Co-axial descriptions earlier in the chapter

Good God you're right! The Co-Ax Autocannon profile is missing. How on Earth did I manage that?

 Blind Grenade does 2d10X damage, I think it shouldn't do any damage…

Oh, and bring back Variable Settings for Lasguns…

 The Eviscerator has the "Razor Sharp" quality, but this is not described in the section for Weapon Special Qualities

I think they added the info in the last paragraph of the weapon's description (it should be at the top of the follow page)  just that it doesnT' cleary states that is the razor sharp quality (that +1 to crit damage)

Pg 127 Hot-shot Laspistol & Lasgun (Lucius Pattern) description.

Line 2 "Hellpistol." should be "Hot-shot Laspistol."

Line 5 "Hellguns…" should be "Hot-shot Lasguns…".

 

In addition. Pg 54, Ogryn fluff, reference is made to a "Ripper Saw" but no mention is made in the Armoury, is this intentional?

 I think the B.O.N.E. Head Implant should be in the Main Book

Pg 125 Table 6-9

Battle Cannon, Demolisher Cannon and Vanquisher Battle Cannons having a Clip size makes no sense at all, let alone a clip of 12 for the Battle Cannon.

Considering a tank cannon is an artillery gun mounted in a turret that is put on top of a tank chassis, (more or less) they should have the Clip size of 1 as per the Earthshaker Cannon (and in line with all sensibility).

If these changes are made, an appropriate change to reload time, I think, would be sensible as well. Say, a Full Action to reload each of the cannons?

I thought that clip size was the shell amount in the tanks' munition locker..which in itself, is rather a low number.

I agree. The Battlecannon/Demolisher Cannon/Vanquisher Cannon/Baneblade Cannon should not have clips. They should be Clip 1; Reload 1/2 Action.

Pg 131 Minefield Round description. How large an area does it cover with sub-munitions?

I'm not sure 1/2 Action is reasonable, I have been lead to believe it takes somewhere in the region of 4-6 seconds to reload a tank gun.

 

Regarding their total capacity, Braddoc, I'll check my Imperial Armour book, but I think it lies somewhere around the 12-18 mark. Tank shells are big!

You're right!
It should be a Full Action. Then Rapid Reload has a point when inside a tank, and doesn't make reloads into a Free Action ().
