	*'''Blast''': You get +1 attack for every 5 models in the target unit. For instance, shooting a 10-man strong unit with a blast weapon which has natively D3 attacks will net you D3+2 attacks. However, this can't be used when in engagement range, even on a tank or a monster, and it ignores cases where multiple "bodies" share one model, like an Imperial Guard Heavy Weapons Team.		*'''Blast''': You get +1 attack for every 5 models in the target unit.

			**While vehicles can fire any guns while engaged, weapons with this rule are the sole exception.
	*'''Extra Attacks''': Lets you use an additional weapon after fighting in melee. Likely to be saved for any special melee pairs, like whatever the greater daemons use or a Succubus's shardnet+impaler.		*'''Extra Attacks''': Lets you use an additional weapon after fighting in melee.

	*'''Hazardous''': The new edition of Gets Hot!, but even more dangerous since it also incorporates Perils of the Warp. After a unit finishes attacking, roll 1d6 per Hazardous weapon used; a 1 kills a model armed with a Hazardous weapon, though {{W40kKeyword\|Character}}, {{W40kKeyword\|Vehicle}}, and {{W40kKeyword\|Monster}} models just suffer 3 Mortal Wounds. Note that unlike in every previous edition, this does not scale with shots per weapon.		*'''Hazardous''': The new edition of Gets Hot!, but even more dangerous since it also incorporates Perils of the Warp.

	*'''Conversion:''' Remember how Conversion Beamers were actually better the further away they were from the target? This makes any unmodified successful hit rolls of 4+ on a target over 12" away count as a critical hit, i.e. they will succeed automatically even if a negative modifier would otherwise stop them, in addition to triggering other Critical Hit USRs you have, if any. This is based on both your hit roll ''and'' range, but is listed here because of its incompatibility with '''Torrent'''.		*'''Conversion:''' Remember how Conversion Beamers were actually better the further away they were from the target?
