Razorbacks can take:

TL plasma rifle, and a lascannon as one weapon choice.

Because they're really one weapon, can it be fired by one?

Or am I wrong.

Pretty sure I'm wrong.

N: this happened to me in a game.

What do you mean "can it be fired by one"?

You mean "Can all three be fired together as one weapon, or do they count as separate weapons?"

So, if you move your Razorback you have to choose which to fire, even though they are modelled as one weapon....

CS - they are *seperate* weapons, and therefore if you move you must choose which to fire.

the fact they are "one choice" makes no difference, in the same way as you buy sponsons for predators as "one choice" - they are still seperate weapons.

It's not "one" weapon choice, BTW. It's a weapon choice. For the additional points the razorback is equipped with a lascannon AND twin-linked plasma gun. Presumably they are both turret mounted. However that just means they have 360 degree los, not that they ignore the rules for vehicles firing weapons. If you don't move, you may fire both, if you move up to 6, fire one, over that fire none. Additionally, it means it is the only option that does not render the vehicle without shooting on a Weapon Destroyed result without requiring the purchase of an HK or pintle weapon.

wuodl be nice if the plasma gun was mounted liek the autocannon on baneblades. I forget the word for it but if you hit with the autocannon the big gun auto-hits.....

This is actually in the space marines FAQ. They are separate weapons.

Jmurph has it spot on, just wanted to state that it was specifically addressed in the FAQ.

i remembered the word!! Co-Axial!!!!


That's been bothering me all night.
