Would it be possilbe for a Devil fish to move 12, and shoot BOTH its Smart missile systems(replaced the drones) and burst cannon when it has moved 12? because i know the devilfish can have the fast vehicle upgrade, but isnt it that when you move 12" on a fast vehicle it can only shoot one weapon?

And when a Skyray(has the fast upgrade) Can it move 12, shoot 2 marker lights, then shoot the smart missile systems? thanks in advance.

Nope. With the fast vehicle upgrade they can fire all their weapons when moving 6" or less or 1 weapon (plus defensive weapons, which they don't have) when moving over 6", just like any other skimmer. They just can't choose to move flat-out.

so the Skyray would not be able to fire its markerlights + sms on a move more than 6"? sorry i just wana clarify everything


and thanks!

Actually, markerlights are a weapon without a defined strength and as such they are classed as defensive weapons per the rulebook pg 58.

So a Skyray would be able to move 12" and fire its smart missile system as its one main weapon and its markerlights as defensive weapons.

And of course any and all seeker missiles could also be launched based on markerlight hit availability but that is completely separate from how many weapons the Skyray is allowed to fire per the seeker missile rules in the Tau codex.

alrighty, so its only the devilfish that had a little mistake during my game. thanks again.
