Captain Idaho Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 That is exactly the way it works. They can't be given heavy or paired weapons, but no rules against them actually using them. The mount has the weapon therefore they get to use it that way. As for the quad, the rules cover the additional crew member by making the weapon, harpoon or heavy bolter, Independent. So there isn't actually another crew member in the rules. He's just an independent weapon system.

Castigator Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 I agree wholeheartedly. It just seems a little 'messy' to me and that the Mounts rule feels like it should have an additional sentence something along the lines of 'All Mounts with inbuilt weapons follow the rules for vehicles when shooting' Fortunately, it will take me that long to re-arm my gangs that it will be quite a while before I get around to using Mounts, so hopefully they'll clear it up by then Captain Idaho 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/388170-necromunda-new-edition/page/9/#findComment-6185687 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Idaho Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Oh it's needlessly messy. A simple line could have covered all of it. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/388170-necromunda-new-edition/page/9/#findComment-6185693 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arikel Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Certain weapons are on the mount, not the fighter. The meaning is that the fighter cannot be riding their mount, and carrying a separate set of paired or heavy weapons like a lascannon or heavy stubber. They could use those weapons if/when you run them unmounted, on their unmounted fighter card. An independent weapon fires with no input from the fighter. i’d have to double check but still think they fire only if you declare a shoot action. However they have their own bs, and do not need to fire at the same target as the fighter does. They fire in addition too whatever weapon the fighter fires. (An orlock on a quad can shoot an autopistol, the independent weapon will fire also) Side note pleased with the pricing of the journals, $35 msrp is affordable even without considering any lgs discount ggergnayr 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/388170-necromunda-new-edition/page/9/#findComment-6185716 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggergnayr Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Yeah, $30 for 50 pages is perfectly acceptable, and I may actually buy all of them instead of just one or two. really hoping we get Van Saar and Delaque soon.

StraightSilver Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 So, annoyingly, I forgot about the pre-orders until this morning and the Escher cards had sold out by the time I logged on. Will these be available in store, or be re-printed do we think? Before I pay a fortune on E-bay......

LFGS' will depend heavily on the individual store. Sometimes reprints/cancelled orders quietly sneak back into stock over the weeks.

Indy Techwisp Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 Whoever it was that speculated that Bow were becoming generic for all Fighters in this because the GotU book has the Bows with Wyld only, I have bad news. This book just removes the Wyld requirement from Bows. They're still Esher-locked.

Also dont forget all of the content from the cards is in the Journal as a table you can roll on, as well. Worst case, you can make your own cards.

Apologies for it taking a week to get back to you on this, was brought down by a head cold for a few days. Back at work now and can confirm that none of the Necromunda products coming out tomorrow will be available in Warhammer stores. If you have an independent retailer near you, they might have some/all of the new stuff coming in however. Edited September 18 by Dosjetka Spelling.
