I looked in the rulebook and did not see any specifics for the following.

1) Can a tank (Razorback mainly) in any situation other than cruising speed, that disembarks still fire its main weapon?

2) Can tanks that fired all their main weapons still fire defensive weapons storm bolter and pop smoke the same phase?

thanks

The rulebook covers all of these questions.

1. Disembarking has no impact on whether a vehicle can shoot. It can fire its main weapon when page 58 tells you it can (left side, see the bullet points).
2. Defensive weapons are covered in the same place.
2a. Smoke launchers are covered on page 62. You trigger them after the vehicles finishes moving that turn, and they prevent any shooting from that vehicle that turn. As of the November rulebook FAQ update, the passengers can't shoot out of a smoked vehicle either.

One thing to add about point 2, if the main weapon you fire happens to be ordanance, then you cannot fire any further weapons that turn, a good example of this being the Monolith's Particle Whip/Gauss Flux Arc.

- Unless you have a rule specifying otherwise.

Lumbering behemoth (Leman Russ) for example or Superheavies.

Well yeah I did forget about those! But thats codex specific!

Thanks guys.
