Noise Marines + Music of the Apocalypse

[CrimsonReign]

so the noise marines have a special rule which allows shooting out of phase :

 

 

so the rule about shooting in melee is bypassed, however when shooting, you're not allowed to target units in melee

 

so a noise marine dies in melee, and then makes a shooting attack against another enemy unit in line of sight?

however when shooting, you're not allowed to target units in melee

 

Where does it say that?

[CrimsonReign]

main rule book pg 179 - choose targets

 

"Models cannot target enemy units that are within 1" of friendly models - the risk of hitting your own troops is too great"

[Daimhin]

But their special rule overrides that (unless it's a multiple combat I guess)

[DreamIsCollapsing]

But their special rule overrides that (unless it's a multiple combat I guess)

 

RAW no, only the limitation for shooting while at 1" of an enemy models is override, not the limitation for shooting an enemy models at 1" of one of your models.

 

RAI yes.

[CrimsonReign]

to clarify, if you can shoot while locked in combat - you can shoot at  units other than the one you're in melee with?

Yes :tu:

Yes

 

 

In fact, I think you can only shoot at units other than the one you're within 1" of.
