Can anyone point out a thread or clarification of "one-shot" missiles? I was on the receiving end of four missile shots in one turn from a Blood Angels stormraven & always wondered about it. And now the GKs & DE have the same weapon ("one-shot") type. My question is:

Can one shot missiles shoot all four missiles on one turn?

I apologize in advance for dumb question.

Yes, as long as the type of missile and distance the vehicle has moved allows you to fire all in one go.

So as BA SR have S8 missiles, they are main weapons and can only be ALL fired if the vehicle moves up to 6" (fast vehicle)

GK can fire all of them at up to 12", as it is a defensive weapon (S4)

Nothing in "one shot" has anything to do with how many you can fire per turn, in essence. For example standard Valks have Ordnance missiles, so you can only fire one per turn and NO other weapons of any type.

Additionally to what Nos wrote, the DE have four different "one shot" missiles that can be carried on two different vehicle platforms.

Both of these vehicle platforms have the "Aerial Assault" special rule that allows them to fire all of their weapons even when moving at Cruising Speed. Therefore, the DE vehicles could fire all of these missiles (and all their other weapons) even though the lowest defined Strength value on those missiles is 6.
