Vortex Blast - If this attack misses, nothing happens. If it directly hits an enemy model, before making the damage roll, push models within 2" of the model hit 2" directly towards it in the order you choose. Then center a 3" AOE on the model hit. Models in the AOE are hit and suffer a POW 12 damage roll. Models boxed by Vortex Blast are RFP'd. Edit description
Chain Attack: Vortex Blast - If this model hits the same enemy model with both its initial attacks with this weapon, after resolving the attacks it can immediately make an additional ranged attack vs that model. If this attack misses, nothing happens. If it directly hits an enemy model, before making the damage roll, push models within 2" of the model hit 2" directly towards it in the order you choose.

Rules Clarification : Vortex Blast      (Edit)

  • The damage roll from Vortex Blast is still ranged attack damage, so anti-ranged damage stuff (like Carapace or Deceleration) will work vs it. (Infernal Ruling)
  • Vortex Blast does a POW 12 damage roll instead of a normal damage roll. This means the POW on the gun is irrelevant (especially for the Daemon). (Infernal Ruling)
  • Severa only
    Because the Vortex is part of a ranged attack, this means
    • You can use an Attack Type on Vortex Blast attack. If you choose Heart Seeker, you'll get a discard die for everyone in the AOE.
    • If the Vortex kills something, that will trigger Run & Gun.
    • Pistoleer stacks with Vortex Blast.
    • (Infernal Ruling for the all of the above)
  • Not blast damage (Edit)
    • Due to the way it is worded, this spell/weapon does full POW to all models in the AOE. It is not blast damage and it is not halved.
    • For the same reason, it doesn't do "two damage rolls to the model directly hit". (Infernal Ruling)
    • Models that are immune to blast damage have no defence vs this spell/weapon.
