If I am looking at it right....the Phantom can advance an extra 12" and the Revenant 18". That is great.

To get the best Field save the phantom barely squeaks by on its top move speed. The Revenant must advance to gain it.

But every weapon is Heavy. The titan rules permit the no modifier for firing heavy weapons even when moving.

BUT IF THOSE TITANS ADVANCE...AS FAR AS I CAN TELL THEY CANNOT FIRE ANY WEAPONS????

IS THIS RIGHT? If so why would anyone ever advance them if they give up such valuable shooting.

Am I missing something or is that the way it is?

No model may fire weapons after advancing unless they have a special rule, or use weapons with the Assault type.

Thanks.

I did not know if there were some obscure rule for the larger models that changed Heavies into Assaults or some such thing.

At least we played it correctly.

Yea, in 8th basically all rules that apply are on the Datasheets you are using Basic rules excluded of course.

Some units are severely disadvantaged if you advance them. The solution is not to advance them.
