I am curious on how many weapons they can shoot...

One Marine on a bike...can you shoot the bike's twin-linked bolters AND the marine's pistol? cause in the rule book it says the bike shoots the gun, not the actual guy riding it...and I remember the old chaos codex with bikers and power weapons/plasma pistols...it said he uses one hand to drive//shoot the bikes gun while the other hand is free...can't you shoot twin-linked bolters and a plasma pistol with the same 1 guy?

what about if the marine has a two-handed weapon like a bolter?? if you can, can you shoot at max range even if you moved??

Somebody please clarify this, it has always confused me.

Bikes count as stationary for shooting whether they move or not.

You can shoot either the Bike-mounted weapon OR a weapon carried by the rider, but not both.

Maybe it would help not to think of the bike and the rider as being two seperate things. A biker is just an infantrymodel with some special rules for movement etc. The bike itself cannot shoot a gun anymore than a jumppack can.

The bike rule says you may fire 1 weapon per rider.

Seems simple enough.

im assuming a HB attack bike can shoot both the HB and the twin-linked bolt guns

Interesting...

So if somehow I gave some Ork rider a rokkit, he could fire it instead of his dakka guns?

I dont think I can give them one, but I dont have the codex near me.

But doesnt an attack bike have an AV? Shows how much I see/use them if not
