http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/15.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net I can’t see why not. The rules just say (pg96) “if a building is occupied”, it doesn’t say by friend or foe.
Now, my opponent was screaming bloody murder. He said as he’d paid for it I couldn’t use it. But to me, it seems quite logical that, if I’ve wiped out all the men in/near, the emplacement , it comes under my control. I can’t see anything saying otherwise.

Now, the game we played had an extra twist to it. I was using Tyranids. I’m pretty sure that in the FAQ it says that nid’s can’t use the emplacement guns (which makes sense I guess), but how does this effect auto fire? Surely if my Gaunts have overrun the position, I can choose to auto fire it at a target of my choice. (obviously still the closest though)

Also, pg 105 doesn’t say anything other than ‘one model’. No mention of friend or foe.

Thoughts?

You're right, though, that anyone can fire the weapon; they just need a unit in base contact with the weapon.

Tyranids are unable to manual fire Emplaced Weapons (FAQ p3), but they can still fire a Gun Emplacement from an Aegis line.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/468632/4631007.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/468632/4631007.page GMT
