MEQ Breaker wrote:If, say, a Fire warrior squad takes a shas'ui with both a markerlight and target lock, then can he fire that before the rest of the unit and allow the unit to benefit from it? Similar situations are with pathfinders and markerlight drones. I didn't think that I can do this, but I wanted to be sure.
zeshin is right in that the shooting is simultaneous, however, the Target Lock allows the 'Ui to shoot, say a Dreadnought, while his fellow FWs, at the same time, shoot their pulse rifles at some SM scouts. Resolve the Scout hits and wounds and the ML marker is put on the dread (if successful).

After the scouts' wounds and saves are resolved, then the tau player is free to use the ML on the dread for a Seeker, cover-removal, etc.

Pathfinders. Let's say you've included a Target Lock on the 'Ui there (it's silly, don't, but you could!). The 'Ui MLs a wounded Daemon Prince and the other PFs put MLs on a group of KhorneBerzerkers. No wounds are dealt so the PFs' shooting is over and now the tau player is free to have a Seeker nail the DP. Or have some FireKnives hose down the KorneBs.

The target lock does let the Shas'ui designate a separate target for the markerlight though.
