So can I use the firepoint or not?

What firepoint? You seem to think the model determines what you have. The datasheet says no firepoints, or omits mention of them entirely? Then you don't have a firepoint. You just have faux window on your hull.

Does it say 'fire points: none' on the rules?
Usually it will say 'as per model' if there are fire points?
Or does it not mention them at all?

Does it even have a transport capacity? If not then a fire point wouldn't even matter anyways.

The datasheet for the Plasma Obliterator says:
Access Points and Fire Points:
As Per Model

Yes, the model has a firepoint. I also believe it is a very wide fire point.

The data sheet in the box (on the back of the assembly instructions) has no mention of firepoints what so ever. It is a medium building though which means as per building rules it has a transport cap of 20, which it needs, otherwise it could never fire.
I don't have the WD 'data slate'. Does that include reference to firepoints? The firepoint on the model is the basic small one so would be 2 weapons firing (if allowed) afaik.

Oh I was, for some reason, just thinking of it as a barebones gun emplacement. Ok if it's a building and the stats say 'as per model' then yeah they would be firepoints. With buildings unless otherwise stated each firepoint allows two models to fire out of them.

Problem is - it doesn't even say 'as per model' on the data sheet from the box, so I'm well confused. The box info does however say it is a fortification - proving rumour true that the HS icon in WD was a misprint.

It's as per model. Google Image Search it. The datasheet from WD is out there on the web still.

Thank you! Waaay! That is an unexpected bonus - I didn't even realise it had one until I oppened it!
AND I just looked through the bits - it has one for a rear firepoint too! Automatically Appended Next Post: Although the flip side of the coin was I kept hearing it was a mega blast - it's not, it's a massive blast. Thought that would actually be the case so not too disappointed.

Congrats on being one of a handful of people able to purchase the model. Shame that GW botched the release so badly and alienated so many people in the process.

Cheers.
I had to order it off ebay - £65 + £5 postage. Worth it I think. Still miffed just like you that they didn't even inform us that it would be limited edition.

Yep. I picked up two the second time they allowed it for sale. I kissed it completely the first time.

Im even further mistaken. 2 firepoints were hidden behind a flooring piece. It has 4 firepoints! One for every 90*. :-D! Automatically Appended Next Post: Stormwall wrote:Yep. I picked up two the second time they allowed it for sale. I kissed it completely the first time.
I would love another already, and that is with it only being in pieces in front of me. Automatically Appended Next Post: It's almost like a mini immobile LoW.
