Subject: When do you key in orbital stike, before or after objective placement?

It says after deployment zones have been selected, but before deployment. So any ideas about how to clarify this? Keying it to an objective is obviously very awesome, just wondering if its legal... Also, how do people interpret the scatter rules? Does it just scatter normally now? Finally, please clear up every rules discrepancy in this old codex.  Thanks, rdlb

You choose sides AFTER putting objectives down.

I'm not sure what you mean. Objectives are sometimes placed in your deployment zone.

Only in seize ground, not in capture and control.
I would suggest that in C&C the orbital strike is before objectives, but there's no rules to say which happens first. Remember that the orbital strike has to be keyed to a terrain piece - if the objective is in the open then the orbital strike can't be placed on it.

Yeah that's true. Most people put their objectives in some cover in my gaming group, or at least right next to some cover in order to block line of sight. I guess I'll just have to clear it up as each game comes along.
Thanks

Good call. And yes, blast weapons scatter -- and this one has rules to even adjust it so I daresay to use those. (Assuming its from C  H, the one I am reading)
