noob on Blast templates

[Deleted]

I downloaded the AC rules and am a little puzzelled on the different ordnance...
Ordnance 1/blast uses the large template and the ordnance chart for damage.
Heavy 1/blast uses the small template?? regular damage table
ordnance 1 uses the ordnance chart but no template?? so what is the point of a Griffon if it will miss 66% of the time?

or do they all use the big blast template and are just different damage tables..

The griffon fires an ordnance template. It is guess range, so you place it, roll 2D6 and pick the highest.

Ordance Template - All Vehicals firing Ordance Weaponry and Plasma Cannons
Heavy Blast Template - Missile Launchers, Grenade Launcers

ok, so the Laser Destroyer and Conqueror uses the large blast template, but uses the tanks BS to determine hits. Do they use the Ordanance table for damage?
so why again is the Griffon Ordnance 1 and not Ordnance 1/Blast?
and the next question then would be is the Vanquisher's AT shell the big blast template, but uses the BS of the crew similar to the Destroyer?

thanks

ps. when did Plasma cannons get to use the ordinance template?

The Vanquisher AT rolls to hit with the crew's BS and rolls on the ordnance damage table but gets no template. As far as I know the Laser Destroyer and Conquerer do not use the ordnance table. I'd never heard that Plasma Cannons get the big template. If they do then I've been missing out!

Yep. Vanquisher AT Shells do not use a Template
And Plasma Cannons get the big Template, i think, maybe the small one.
