Special Rules
Energy Field: A War Walker's pilot is encased in a powerful force field. Any ranged attack against a War Walker from the front arc with a Strength greater than 8 counts as Strength 8. In addition, such attacks never roll more than +1D6 for their armour penetration (for example, melta weapons at half range or ordnance only roll one dice). Attacks from the side or rear, or in close combat, are not affected by the energy field and so do not suffer any of these penalties.
