Choke grenades and wounding hits

[sonofruss]

i throw a choke grenade into a bunch of gangers, pop, 3 failed test and count as down. in my next turn i charge the downed gangers in the cloud ( cause i always buy flugs/ respirator for my girls with gas grenades) do i get XP for dispatching downed gangers? as they technicality havent lost a wound, so i am taking their final wound off them to put them OOA? or as the NCE stats u cant get XP from downed gangers?

If they end up with 0 wounds at some point, you gotta be getting XP for taking them out, surely!

 

[sonofruss]

Yeah I know but who gets the xp, the thrower or the curb stomper?

 

[trollmeat]

Neither.

+5XP per wounding hit.
The "Chucker" causes Hits, but does not Wound.
The "Stomper" causes Wounds, but does not Hit.

Choke Grenades are a Cowards Weapon, as are the Malcadon's Web Spinners.

Cowards weapon yes, effective as f*%k definetly yes, u get a few targets huddled in cover and a ganger with a respirator and it's 3 or 4 people out real fast
But yes I can see ur point about no xp

The Malcadon's Web Spinner takes models Down without Wounding, and then to finish them off without causing a Hit and not getting any XP is a bit harsh...

Might want to bring it up in the community thread, @Anthony mentioned the malcadon thing in this post, but there are currently no suggestions to remedy the Choke/Spinners issue.

Ah, didn't realise you meant the wounds and the 'OOAing' were for different models. In that case, I'd go with @trollmeat.
