Hi guys,

I apologize if this has been covered before, but if a demolisher armed with plasma cannon sponsoons fires all weapons, would the large blast from the demolisher cannon and small blasts from the plasma cannon sponsoons be linked together (firing multiple blast weapons)?

I'm convinced it does, but I figure I'd run it by people before doing it in a real game.

thanks

They're not barrage weapons, so, like any other blast weapon, you resolve them individually.

Errrm, normal Blast weapons are never linked. Only barrage are.

The Demolisher is an Ordnance Blast, and the Plasma Are normal Blasts, so you work out each blast separately, and then roll X dice to wound for all the plasma hits and Y for all the Demolisher Hits.

Also, Wrong forum

Isn't there some rule about only if you fire an ordinance weapon then the tank can't fire any other weapons whatsoever? Or does the codex specifically say you can fire everything (at work so don't have it on me)?

Can a vehicle fire both ordnance and another weapon in the same shooting phase?

The IG codex has the 'lumbering behemoth' special rule for Russes that allows them to fire their turret weapon in addition to other weapons they can normally fire even if that turret weapon is Ordnance.

What Yak said. As long as a Leman Russ Stays Still it can indeed fire its Ordnance Turret, a Lascannon and 2 Plasma Cannons.

It's a Pretty effective tank

RAW people...

What do you mean, Colonel584?

He's just padding his post count on old(and concluded) threads.
