Atlantic Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Am I reading the codex and the rule book wrong? Can the BA Vindicator really move 12 inches and still fire the demolisher cannon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gen. Confusion Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 The Blood Angels Vindicator is a fast vehicle so yes it can move 12 and fire one weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysticaria Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Am I reading the codex and the rule book wrong? Can the BA Vindicator really move 12 inches and still fire the demolisher cannon? Yeah, it's pretty good. Makes us people who have blue vindicators jealous. We have to console ourselves with the fact that they are... at least... a little more expensive. -Myst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Black Templars can do the same thing with Power of hte Machine Spirit. Not really a Tactica issue, so off to the rules forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkGuard Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Actually guys a fast vehicle moving at 12" can fire one main weapon and all defensive. However, the Vindicator doesn't get to do this because if you fire an ordnance weapon you can't fire anything else. Just thought I'd clarify that.

Leonaides Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Actually a Vindicator can do this if it happens to have a Hunter Killer Missile and a Storm Bolter attched... Though why you'd want to fire those if your main gun was still functional is beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thade Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Careful not to confuse the issue, gentlemen. <3 The OP is weighing in at 7 posts. :ph34r: In short, a vehicle's allowed to roll at Combat Speed and fire one Ordnance weapon (e.g. a Demolisher cannon), per the BRB; Combat Speed is 6". Fast vehicles can move an additional 6" and still count as moving at "Combat Speed"...so a Fast Vindicator can fire it's giant gun after a 12" move. And it is awesome. Any vehicle firing an Ordnance weapon can't fire anything else in the turn (including its defensive weapons). Leonaides's point is that if you purchase a Hunter-Killer missile for your Vindicator and choose to fire it after a 12" move instead, you can also fire the Vindicator's storm bolter: perfectly legal, as neither are ordnance.
