Butters Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 When using the imperial Titan he must be facing at the unit he is shooting correct. The book says that walkers do, but nothing on super heavies that I can find. This brings up a second question. Since the Imperial Knight has split fire or something like it. Can he shoot in front and then shoot behind himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axagoras Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 walkers can pivot to their target when they fire a weapon, so a kinght can pick a target for its heavy stubbers, turn to face and fire, then pick a target for its main gun, turn and fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffersonian000 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 You might note that Imperial Knight weapons are designed to pivot, and follow vehicle rules when shooting, i.e., measure from the mounting allong the barrel, fire arc is what the weapon appears to be able to swing to cover or 45-degree to either side if fixed.

Gentlemanloser Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 walkers can pivot to their target when they fire a weapon, so a kinghtcan pick a target for its heavy stubbers, turn to face and fire, thenpick a target for its main gun, turn and fire You can't do this. All shooting is simultaneous, and a Walker is allow to; pivot the Walker on the spot so that its guns are aimed at the target As you fire all your weapons at the same time, you need to be facing any and all targets you will be shooting at in a single position. Walkers weapons also have a 45 degree firing arc as well. So once you've established your position and facing, you should also take into account the 45 degree arcs as well.

Butters Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 ok so they do have to be facing the target, or at least the gun arc should be and it cannot turn around to shoot at a seperate target. Correct? Does anyone know a page on that in the brb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 GML already quoted the rule, but for ease of reference- and convincing your opponents- its pg. 84, left hand column, paragraph five under "shooting with walkers", 2nd sentence. Its also bolded. For all shooting being simultaneous.... pg. 13, left hand column, first paragraph, last sentence- also nicely bolded for easy reference.
