I believe that both the basislisk and whirlwind use the large template, as they are both ordanance weapons.

WOW bbut the whirlwind fires 10 rockets! that would just wipe out an army. As you pick a rocket for each target or am i wrong? or like the basalisk it fires in just 1 place.

anything that is classed as an ordanance weapon uses the ordanance template. so the whirlwind and basalisk both use the big template.

No you don't. The multiple missile description is just part of the story. It is treated the same as other weapons. You really need to read the rules again.

Fluff isn't rules! If you go by fluff, Necrons would win automatically, and the Space Marines wouldn't die. Blast is the small one, and Ordinance is the big one.
