As far as i've experienced multi-targetting tanks, in Bolt Action it does not create issues and in my opinion it deserve to be set in 40k.

As for fluff I can't recall or find any mention of IG tank weapons being manned by less than one person per gun, so it does make sense. You could probably let sponsons fire independently, because with the exception of the plasma cannon all of the sponson weapons are fairly low-damage even against infantry.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9075855.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9075855.page GMT Re:Imperial Guard Tanks IG tanks (and all tanks I figure by extension) should be able to freely shoot their weapons at any number of targets.

I'm behind it. Makes sense, isn't game breaking, might promote more varied weapon loadouts on tanks.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9075868.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9075868.page GMT Re:Imperial Guard Tanks IG tanks because I know them, I can't speak for Eldar tanks because I don't know them. I would assume they should too, but never assume anything.

Ah prehaps split fire isn't the rule I'm looking for, perhaps just say in thew BRB vecheiles can shoot seperate from each other in a unit 9lets be bloody honest, Pask kills something in his tank, why the hell does the next tank HAVE to shoot the same thing, even if they shot at the same time, they really could shoot at different things).

True, worst case sernario you up the cost of tanks (but not for IAV1E2!!!)

First of all, split fire wouldn't do what you described as far as I can tell. Split fire itself allows one model in the unit to fire at a separate target from the rest of the unit, not for one model in the unit to target multiple enemy units with its weapons


Well, i reckon we're discussing split fire as the concept of shootig separate targets with a single tank and at one time, not as the rule. To be honest I think no tank gets this rule simply because since they have no morale value, they wouldn't be able to check it... ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9080120.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9080120.page GMT Imperial Guard Tanks Ld test, as of 7th edition.

Could you please develop? I actually can't seem to understand what you meant. Why inapropriate? Why still bad? Why would player encounter any particular problem?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9080353.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9080353.page GMT Imperial Guard Tanks MC users and STILL wouldn't make up for the sorry state of vehicles. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9080357.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9080357.page GMT Imperial Guard Tanks

No, tanks targeting different target IS absolutely appropriate. I'm saying this house rule would get flak from many MC users and STILL wouldn't make up for the sorry state of vehicles.


See your point, sounds right enough.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9083308.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710969/9083308.page GMT
