Hi!
If I have a unit of Kroot Carnivores with Sniper Rounds, can I instead of using the sniper rounds opt to shoot as ordinary kroot pulse rifles (Rapidfire) (in order to avoid Snap Fire after movement, since the sniper rounds are Heavy 1)?
Regards
Matt

Is it added or replaced in the Kroot entry?

Its a "May upgrade all models... to take..." option.

"Sniper rounds" sounds like ammunition, the guns "can take" those rounds. According to such an interpretation I should be able to change at will. Do you agree?

Yes you can fire both. Its the same as the hammerhead submunitions> an alternate fire mode

That is why I asked the question. If you are allowed to just take something, then you are not replacing anything. If you do not replace something, you will still have it. It is only when you are replacing something that you lose it, like the Pulse Rifles versus Carbines for Fire Warriors. "Exchange" is also synonymous with replace.

So, have Kroot Rifle, takes Sniper ammo, can use regular Rifle or Sniper profile. Simple.
