Everybody is super mad in this thread...

The relevant rules haven't been cited. Saying "It's in the BRB" isn't a citation, it's a bit snide.

Saying, "It's in the new FAQ" isn't good enough. A web address, a Heading title...something like that would be a citation.

As it stands, there have been some unsupported claims that Interceptor works like a shooting sub-phase in the Movement phase. No rules quotes have been given for this.

I posted rules in the OP. We need some more.

Okay, let me do your reseach for you, as the thread in question is near the bottom of page 1 rather than near the top.

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/689817.page

That takes you to the thread covering the draft FAQs. The first link "HERE" is to the BRB. Check under the "Interceptor" Q&A.

The last link "HERE" on the first post is fir the Tau Empire. Check pages 8 and 9, I believe.

Please note this is a draft FAQ, with live errata. There are a number of contradictions in ghe different Q&As, which can be argued in the FB threads, but the errata is official.

The word "Interceptor" only seems to appear in the Overwatch (Q5, Overwatch + Multitrackers / MC's) and Skyfire and Interceptor page (with exactly two entries, shown below):

SKYFIRE AND INTERCEPTOR
Q: Can a model with Skyfire and Interceptor shoot at targets that are not Flyers with its full Ballistic Skill when they deploy from Reserve (e.g. Drop Pods)?
A: No.

Q: Can Interceptor weapons fire at a unit that disembarked from a Transport that arrived from Reserve?
A: Yes.

Which of these, exactly, is meant to support the claim that Interceptor is treated as it's own shooting phase?

FAQ page 10: Reserves, Riptides, Riptides + Multitrackers, Pathfinders + Scout, Hammerhead, Drone controller, Sun Shark Drones.

I'm not being lazy, I've "done research", I simply cannot ruddy well find what you're referring to.

Weird, you just cited the Tau entry on page 5.

You mean the links I posted?

They work for me, could anyone else have a go and see what's happening?
