Ok, when I was looking up some tactics for the vindicare assassin, I came across this:
http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2007/03/tactica-vindicare-assassin.html
When it started talking about the exitus pistol, it said that if the vindi didn't move, he could fire it twice.
Where does it say this?
I can't find it in codex WH or DH.
Can't even find it in the rulebook!
Help!!! Please!!!

Pistols in the 4th edition got two shots if you stood still and didnt move. They changed it now in 5th edition, all you get is one shot regardless if you stood still or not.

Ahh, that makes sense!

IIRC, pistols could fire twice while moving and still assault in 3rd edition. They've changed them every edition.

Hopefully this will be fixed, at least for dual-wielding, by the time the next SoB codex is finished.

Yeah, this is why Tactics and Rules-based articles should always be clear as to which edition of the game they're talking about...

Although speaking of making things clear, I'm moving this to where it belongs...
