Split target???

Okay, so from what iv been playing and what I have learnt....is that if the vehicle shoots at a target, the passengers has to shoot at that some target...

But I got told, that the vehicle can target one enemy and the passenger can shoot a different one...eg. Venom shoots squad A, blaster born inside of venom shoots a vehicle.

I'm just wondering if that is actual legit...if so, where is it in the rule book, cause I want to be able to prove it if I have to Razz

please help!!!

No, that's still not legit.

I think you've missed the part where they jump out of the Venom.

Then they are able to target a different unit.

@Gunnerboy - there is no specific rule for this, other than that they are two units and are allowed to fire at two targets.

GW did put it into their FAQ (go to their site for the FAQs and get the one for the core rulebook - it's on page 5 of that PDF) where they stated this again just to help people understand it.

You can fire at two targets whether or not you disembark as long as the vehicle moved 6" or less so that the passengers are allowed to fire.

Wow... I had never even considered this as an option. This makes me even happier that I special ordered 2 more venoms from my FLGS!
