Any ranged attacks against the vehicle's front and side armour with a Strength greated than 8 counts as Strength 8. Additionally, all front and side attacks may only ever roll +1d6 for their armour penetration (for example, negating the Melta and Ordnance rules). Attacks in close combat or in the rear armour ignore this rule.
