templarios Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Wanting to go the grey hunter drop pod avenue. Once the pod lands and the squad disembarks, do they get to fire all of their weapons (shots, templates and blasts) at full BS or are they restricted to firing their guns using the snap shots rule (because the vehicule is considered going at cruising speed)??

carnosaur93 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 iam pretty sure you must use snapshots, yes Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/269336-drop-pod-snap-shots/#findComment-3280502 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WG Vrox Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Deep Strike, they deploy withing 6" of the drop pod, the drop pod will only be capable of snap shots, however the unit inside may shoot is if they disembarked from a vehicle that moved at cruising speed.

templarios Posted January 12, 2013 Author Share Posted January 12, 2013 p 36 Deep Strike Table: (bottom left paragraph) in that turn's shooting phase, these units can fire as normal and obviously count as having moved in the previous movement phase. Vehicles count as having moved at cruising speed. p 78 Transports: (fire points) models firing out of a vehicle that cruising speed can only fire snap shots that turn. A bit confusing. Vehicles deep striking are moving at cruising speed and units disembarking can fire as normal but if they remain inside they can only fire snap shots????

Yes, because they deploy outside of the vehicle they can fire as normal.

Grey Mage Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Yes. You can think of it as not having to deal with the vehicles motion while taking aim.
