If a Blast weapon targets a unit that has between 6 and 10 models, it always makes a minimum of 3 attacks.In addition to the normal rules, the following rules apply to Blast weapons: Some weapons have ‘Blast’ listed in their profile’s abilities. If an ability modifies the damage inflicted by a weapon, and that weapon can inflict mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, the modifier does not apply to any mortal wounds that are inflicted (unless the rule specifically states otherwise). If an attack inflicts mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, but the normal damage is subsequently saved, the target unit still suffers the mortal wounds, as described before. If an attack inflicts mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, resolve the normal damage first. Instead, keep allocating damage to another model in the target unit until either all the damage has been allocated or the target unit is destroyed. Unlike damage inflicted by normal attacks, excess damage from mortal wounds is not lost.

Do not make a wound roll or saving throw (including invulnerable saves) against a mortal wound – just allocate it as you would any other attack and inflict damage to a model in the target unit. Each mortal wound inflicts 1 point of damage on the target unit, and they are always applied one at a time.

Some attacks inflict mortal wounds – these are so powerful that no armour or force field can withstand their fury.
