Poll
Can interceptor be used with a dreadnought when the target is outside their firing arc?
Yes - pivot the model on the spot and and fire as a normal (out of turn) shooting sequence
No - the dreadnought cannot pivot as it needs line of sight with its weapons first, therefore cannot pivot

Riptides aren't walkers.

They don't have to be, the weapon has to have line of sight prior to using interceptor, not the rip tide itself.

And how do you check line of sight for weapons on non-vehicle models?

It won't actually matter which way the Riptide's weapon is pointed, since you can't draw LOS with it anyway. There is no rule that outlines a proess for establishing LOS from a weapon on anything other than a vehicle.

So as it currently stands, Interceptor on anything other than a vehicle will simply not function at all.
