I have a few questions as I have recenty started playing Necromunda.

1. My leader has the gunslinger skill so I gave him two plasma pistols. When fighting in combat does he use the S4 or S6 when resolving combat. Also if he shot in the previous turn on high power then in his next turn charged can he count the strength of his plasma pistol for wounding?

2. When shooting a shotgun using scatter rounds does it hit all models friend and foe with the stray shot rule on a 4+. Also, does the shot end at the model targeted or does it hit all models up to its max range that are within the stray shot range. (IE: A model is two inches behind the original target and still in range of the shotgun is he hit as well?

1. For fairness I would say S4 but if you haven't fired on full power then i guess you could use S6. And If he's armed with two pp only then thats his weapon to use in cc so yes S4.

2. More difficult to answer. But remember these rules were at the same time as 2nd ed 40K.

My guess is: That it does hit friend and foe with stray shot rule. And it stops at the model targeted.

I second that

well' you could use some house rules to cover that. IMO it might look cool if it hits all models up to it's maximal range, as this is more realistic. so yes you could hit your own gangers with it.

hope this helps.
