When you roll a 1 on a Looted Wagon for don't press dat, How far does it move? (Cruising or Flatout)

If it doesn't move (via a friendly unit sitting 1" in front of it) does it still count as moving cruising speed/flatout.

Must move directly forward "as far as possible".

So it moves, as far as possible. Which would be cruising speed since Looted wagons aren't fast and therefore cannot move Flat Out.

Ok what about sittin a friendly unit in front of it would it still count as moving if it goes nowhere?

you move as fast as possible. if you cant move because of terrain or friendly/enemy units etc, then you count as moving as far as you actually moved.

I don't have my book in front of me right now but doesn't the looted wagon say in it's rule that it counts as moving the 12" even if it doesn't.

It's not in the codex but the faq tells you that it always counts as having moved at full speed.

And to correct Darth Spadder: only if there is a friendly unit / impassable terrain do you not move(although still count as moving at cruising); If there is an Enemy unit, you Tank shock/Ram them.
