Hello,

I know you can have two models shoot from the Rhinos top hatch, but what are the rules with that?

For example, would that mean I can only shoot my bolters with Rapid Fire since it moved that turn, or can I use the full 24".

Also, can you shoot Heavy Weapons from the top hatch? I.E Multimeltas, Missile Launchers, etc. ?

Thanks!

page 66, main rules last paragraph in the Fire Points section will tell you what you need to know.

Thanks don, I'll check on that now.

As a side-not, 'Rapid Fire' is a type of weapon, not a mode of fire. You don't 'Rapid Fire' with bolters any more than you 'Heavy' with a Lascannon. It may not seem like a particularly important point, but it does lead to people misunderstanding just how Rapid Fire weapons work. It's not a conscious decision to fire one or two shots... they just fire a set number of shots depending on the distance to the target.

If the vehicle moves then the passengers count as moving. See P66

Yep. Subject to the restriction above.

Thanks for the clarification guys, helped out a lot.
