Hello Fellow Dakka-ites.

I've been reviewing the rules for FMC's on page 49. I can't find any provision for them to have skyfire while shooting at fliers, is this correct?

Thanks

It's in the BRB FAQ.

Found it, thanks.
Q: Flyers are entitled to choose whether or not to use the Skyfire
special rule at the start of each Shooting phase . Can Swooping
Flying Monstrous Creatures also do this? (p49)
A: Yes.

I have another follow-up ====

Say a Flying Daemon Prince gets the S8 AP1 lance gift as a shooting attack, it also rolled on Pyromancy and got say.... I dunno, Molten Beam.

May it fire both it's lance and Molten Beam? I'd lean towards yes, but I'm not 100% certain.

One thing I am sure of is that it may not manifest two witchfire powers.

Sure - but remember that the Beam can't hit a Flyer.

Why not?

loreweaver - you can fire 2 weapons as an MC, so could, if mastery 2, fuse 2 witchfire powers

Oh I see, I mis-interpreted page 69. Here's the snippet.
--
Even if a Psyker has a special rule allowing him to manifest
more than one psychic power per turn, he can manifest only
one witchfire power - regardless of its subrype (see below).
However, if he can shoot more than one ranged weapon per
turn, he can use a different witchfire power in place of each
(assuming he has enough Warp Charge).

So, Kairos Fateweaver, for example, could fire off Infernal Gateway and Bolt of Change at the same target in the same shooting phase.

Correct.

That seems kinda good against 2+ Armour guys o_O "Here, take this AP1 blast followed up by an AP2 Beam, both are between S5 and S10.

Yup, that is why Mastery Lvl2 on a Monstrous Creature is awsome, and if its a FMC its just icing on the cake.
