3 Stealth Suit
Team Leader with:
H-W Target Lock
H-W Drone Controller
2 Marker Drones
Marker Light

Do the marker drones benefit from the Team Leader's target lock (meaning they can fire at the same target as the team leader) or do they have to fire at the same target as the rest of the squad? I would think that as the drones are basically just equipment for the team leader (they are removed if he dies), they should be able to fire at the same target as him, even if the rest of the unit is firing at a different target.

2. In 5th if I fire through an enemy unit the unit behind them gets a 4+ cover save. Say I have 2 marker lights on the screened unit. How are the marker lights resolved? Can I use the marker lights to reduce the cover save after nominating my target or is the 4+ save just a "possibility" until I actually fire on the screened unit? If so does my declaration to reduce cover saves turn into a race with my opponent to reduce the saves before he starts rolling saves?

3. If I twin link a weapons system on a crisis suit does it count as one weapon or two for firing purposes? The Tau Codex says that a TL weapons systems counts as two weapons in terms of determining how many weapons systems a suit can have, but TL weapons always fire as a single weapon. Could I have TL plasma, a missile pod and fire all the systems with a hard-wired multi-tracker? If the TL weapons systems do count as two weapons, shouldn't every suit that TLs a system have to use a multi-tracker in order to do so?

Thanks!

2) Seeing as how all cover saves are "just a 'possibility'" until you actually start shooting, I don't see a problem. Light 'em up to your heart's content.

3) You've answered your own question. Firing a TL weapon is firing one weapon.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/211365/287204.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/211365/287204.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/211365/287275.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/211365/287275.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/211365/287291.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/211365/287291.page GMT
