One of the results for the Mysterious Objectives grants a controlling unit Skyfire, does this mean that the controlling unit can't shoot with full BS at ground units, as it doesn't have the Interceptor rule? And is given no choice on using Skyfire, like flyers get?


Edit: nevermind, just found where it says they can choose to use it or not. However on this point in a BIg Guns never tire, if a Long Fang(or any other scoring unit that can split fire) unit Split fires one at flyer on at ground, would the ground unit have to fire snapshots?

The skyfire special rule states that when they shoot at a flier they can shoot at full BS it says nothing about them having to shoot at fliers

Does it say they get interceptor? If so then yes if not then no

I believe the wording of the objective says the unit holding it may choose to use the Skyfire rule. Meaning it is optional.

Given that the wording talks about the unit, not the model, then if the Long Fangs choose to skyfire and split against ground units, the shots at the ground units will be at BS1.
