Description

Per rules, Aerospace units employing Artillery Cannon CAN deliver damage effects into adjacent hexes when against ground units, as 285. TO(and errata);

.. Aerospace units employing Artillery Cannons against other aerospace units use them as autocannons, and cannot deliver damage effects into adjacent hexes. However, the damage type is still considered AE. ..

For now I have checked that small crafts are deliver damage effects into adjacent hexes when making strike attack normally. But for dropships, they are simply shoot via bay and only damages the hexes.

Sub-Capital Weapons are also does not deliver any damage to the units on the target hex and adjacent hex.

Sub-Capital Weapons, 343, TO, says;

  • Sub-Capital Weapons used to deliver a strike against ground-based targets deliver their full damage only against the target hex - and all units therein - plus half their rated damage to the adjacent hexes(and all units therein). Remember that 1 point of capital-scale damage translated to 10 points of standard-scale damage when attacking ground units in this fashion.

Also, although the option is outdated and is unofficial, when I activate Aero Sanity Mod for damage option(on Advanced Aerospace Rules) and try this again, Megamek is freezed.
