Devastating Wounds Each time an attack made with a **[DEVASTATING WOUNDS]** weapon results in a **critical wound**, the attack sequence for that attack ends and the target unit suffers a number of **mortal wounds** equal to the **D** characteristic of that weapon. These are inflicted after resolving any normal damage inflicted by those attacks.
**Mortal wounds** inflicted by **[DEVASTATING WOUNDS]** weapons can damage a maximum of one model for each **critical wound**; any remaining **mortal wounds** inflicted by that attack are lost.
**Example: An attack made with a **[DEVASTATING WOUNDS]** weapon with a **D** characteristic of 3 results in a **critical wound** against an Intercessor Squad, so inflicts 3 **mortal wounds**. The first 2 **mortal wounds** are sufficient to **destroy** 1 Intercessor model, so the remaining **mortal wound** is lost.*
Pistol **[PISTOL]** and **[CLOSE-QUARTERS]** are identical for all rules purposes.
Units containing one or more models with a **[CLOSE-QUARTERS]** weapon can shoot using **close-quarters shooting** (10.06). When using another **shooting type**, for each model in that unit (excluding **MONSTER/VEHICLE** models), you can only select one of the following to make attacks with:
- One or more of its **[CLOSE-QUARTERS]** weapons.
- One or more of its other ranged weapons.
