Yes, but ranged template weapons are not limited to that one weapon. e.g. psy cannon from eldar, template from dominatrix, template from the ordinatus-something (also flamer template), small template from orc cannon (the 3 cm one) etc. For me its a more general discussion on the holofield and not specific powers.
Does physical templates that require LoS scatter on a holofield? Or is that limited to physical templates that are round (6 and 12 cm) that require LoS?
When stating it like that I think I know what the intent of the rules is.....
Intent of rules are very relevant when discussing the current rules. I agree it should be specified if the intent was for templates to scatter so as to not cause further confusion. Also the different rules in the eldar codex and base rules causes confusion as it is
If it was
not the intent to scatter the templates the rules should remain untouched.
But with RAW some things does not work as intented e.g.for tyranids gargoyles are skimmmers and can not exit a harridan unless it lands (thats only for jump troops). I dont think that is as intented, but thats RAW. So several places the rules are used as intented not as written.
Scream: the eldar titan template is very fragile and no shield means that the energy pulse is a near auto destruction if hit. All other titans and pretorians has a defence in their shields. It is only "logical" that the holofield offers protection like other titan shields. Unless there is a reason to let eldar titans be highly vulnerable to those attacks compated to ther titans and pretorians, which I do not know.
P.S. agan, biased as I play eldar. Especially as it went from a scatter and psy save in earlier threads (the one I linked to) to no scatter and no save, just near auto destruction for this specific power.
