micahwc Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 (edited) Can troops embarked in super heavy transports which are able to fire in the shooting phase also able to fire overwatch? I'd assume yes but don't actually know. If so I kind of want to take a stormlord filled with hotshot volley gun scions for giggles.

Feral_80 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Literally no, as the Extended firing deck rule says 'shooting phase', and that excludes overwatch. So, unless this has been/will be FAQ'd, it's a no. I don't see why it should be otherwise, in any case. The superheavy's own overwatch is already crazy good.

Dr_Ruminahui Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 As well, unless there is a special rule such as the Tau have, only the unit being charged gets to overwatch. As the embarked unit isn't being charged (the transport is), no overwatch.
