Stormraven, PotMS, Flat Out

Yes. (BA) PoTMS allows the vehicle to fire one more weapon than would normally be allowed.

An even better question would be, can a storm raven move flat out and still allow the passengers to assault out?

 

And hey bigdunc, aren't you a long time Templars player?

Don't worry I havent given up on them. They're collecting dust right now unless I use them as Death Company while I'm getting used to the new BA dex.

Well that is a question? Can they assault if the StormRaven has moved flat out; p70 of the rulebook answers that one. Passengers cannot diembark/embark with a vehicle if it has moved flat out or is going to...I assume that disembarking also means assualts.

Did any one else notice (maybe it's because I haven't played in such a long time) the machine spirit in our codex shoots at regular BS and not half like in previous editions. Maybe like I said I have missed too much but seems like a no brainer to me!

It's can actually be further than that, if you have a short bodied Stormraven and you turn broadside to the target of the attacking DCF. SR moves 12" + 2" from base dismount + 6" move + 1d6" fleet + 6" charge = 27 to 33" range. Hell even the "normal" Furioso can go 26" on the charge. Seems like a pretty good reason to start on the board if you have first turn. Make it a Librarian with FotD and you can nail a unit 44" away. Sounds like that quad lascannon squad on the back edge better watch out. :blush:

All the Power of the machine spirit can fire at their own BS now, even those of the Inquisition.

Not true, Templars and Dark Angels I believe still have the old POTMS (they can move with their POTMS, but only shoot at BS2)
