Alright here is a question.

Can passengers and transport vehicles shoot at different targets?

Ex: If thier is a group of 4 true born with blasters in a venom, and the true born shoot at a nearby
land raider, can the venom shoot at something else?

Thank You

Yes,they are two different units.

**Ascalam**

They are different units and so can fire at different targets.

They can't fire (without some rule saying that they can) if a vehicle moves more than 6'', and if it's not open topped they are limited by it's fire points.

In your example it's fine for the venom to aim at one target, and the trueborn another.

**Deadshot**

If a fast vehicle moves 6'',it is fine to fire heavy weapons and RF weapons normally,right?But not with other,non fast vehicles.

**Ascalam**

You can't fire heavy weapons if you are in a moving vehicle, as you count as moving. You have to be stationary to fire Heavies.

Rapid fire weapons are fine.

This applies to all vehicles, fast or not.

No. Fast vehicles alter how THEY fire, not their passengers. You have still moved a vehicle, and therefore the pasengers count as moving.

Otherwise i'd have 3 trukks with 12 man loota squads tooling around the field

Unless you are relentless, then you can move and shoot heavy weapons.

Blasters are assualt

One more question, do agonizers count as poisoned weapons?

**Ascalam**

They are power weapons that always wound on a 4+.

Same mechanic as poisoned weapons, but it doesn't actually say that they are poisoned (so they're not, officially).

Odd really, since the Ork Runtherd's shock-stick is a poisoned weapon, but then enough fried grot guts would poison anyone..
