Land Speeder Deep Striken & shooting

[Iron-Daemon Forge]

Hi everone

 

So Land Speeder, Deep Striken & being able to fire.

 

In the old Space Marine FQA it said you where not allow to fire on the turn you deep strike. However during a game last night & the after match talk going through what we learn from the game, give feedback (for a tournament in week time). One bit came up & it was this.

 

Basicly as said in the old FQA you could never deep strike & fire with a Land Speeder. However this also ment in 5th ed you got that nice cover save. However looking that the recent FQA, it seem to be remove/gone. Is there anything on the rule book on this & if so which page.

 

Just basicly wanted to check if Speeder can now fire on the turn they deep strike or not.

Just want to make sure before this tournament, as end of the day I do not want to out do my oppent on a/any rule if it is not there but use to or like wise out do myself when it can help/matter.

 

Thanks in advance for any help

Yes, they can.

A Deep Striking vehicle counts as moving at cruising speed(BRB, Pg.95). A Fast vehicle can fire one weapon and all defensive weapons when it moves cruising speed (BRB, Pg.70). Please note : you do not get the Flat Out cover save on the turn you Deep Strike.
