| So I am quite new, and I have come to the understanding that if say a venom moves at cruising speed. It must fire snapshots, does that count for the passangers as well or how does it work? | |

| Stationary: Full BS
Combat Speed (6"): Count as having moved
Cruising Speed (12"): Snap Shots only
Yes, they shoot snap shots if the venom moves 12". And remember that the passengers dont need to shoot at the same target as the venom | |

| Remember, the venom itself will NOT snap-fire at cruising speed, because, being a fast skimmer, it can fire up to 2 weapons at normal BS. The passengers will snap-fire, however. | |

| That is pretty nice, allows for some good volleys of splinter until the time is right. | |

| New general FAQ is out. It now allows us to jink and still shoot normally (with the passengers). This will mean a new age of raider/warrior/splinter rack goodness | |

This will mean a new age of raider/warrior/splinter rack goodness Heh. or a return to the already-in-process age of raider/warrior/splinter rack goodness... after a brief hiccup of uncertainty. | |

| I think it's 'up to and including', so anything up to 6" is combat speed, and from 6" to 12" is Crusing Speed.
Sort of limits our 'super-fast glass cannon' thing...
Ah well :S | |
