I'm not sure what is meant to be happening here... It says on PotMS, that even when moving you fire 'one more weapon at full bs', but it also says in the rulebook that "can only make snap shots at cruising speed", but the rules for snap shots say that ordnance cannot be fired as a snap shot...
So... Confused on this one! I mean, even with PotMS, you're still shooting a snap shot, coz you moved, so then you cant shoot ordnance.. But the wording of it is confusing (that, and to understand this, you have to look at so many different rules)

Normally you can only fire 1 weapon at full BS, and everything else fires as Snap Shots. With PotMS you fire 2 weapons at full BS and everything else fires Snap Shots.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

PoTMS lets your fire another weapon at full BS, bypassing the snap shot restrictions.
Plain and simple.

Note it doesn't bypass mandatory Snap Shotting, such as shooting at Flyers. Or a model with Skyfire shooting at a ground target.

Thats what I thought... But doesnt that also include moving at cruising speed, as it says in the BRB that 'a vehicle that moved at cruising speed can only make snap shots'... which is just as mandatory as shooting at a flier, as it says that it 'can only' make snap shots..
