Tau pathfinders have the markerlight action that starts and resolves at the end of the movement phase, Raise the Banners starts at the end of the movement phase and resolves at the end of the turn.

In my turn when I have the ability to resolve conflicting rules in the priority I decide, can a unit of pathfinders carry out both actions?

Ie Markerlights action first which starts and immediately resolves itself followed by the banners action?

Cheers

PERFORMING ACTIONS

A unit can only attempt to perform one action per battle round.

Thanks for the fast answer.

Learnt something new from this thread, thanks!

I think you've got the Pathfinder ability slightly mixed up as well, as it seems you start the action at the end of the movement phase not the start like you thought.

Target Uploaded: This unit can start the Fire Markerlights action at the end of your Movement phase, instead of at the start.

So both Fire Markerlights and Raise Banners would be trying to start at the same time.

But good stuff on making the question specific as it elicited an interesting titbit of knowledge from p5freak.

Can isnt must. They can start the markerlight action at the start of the movement phase, if they want to.
