Jolemai Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Used one of these the other night and a situation came up with regards to overwatch. Here's the rule (well, an exert from the weapon's ability) in question: In the shooting phase when you select the weapon to fire it follows the above exert. Does this apply for overwatch to as you are "firing" it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race Bannon Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Sure, why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 Well, it seems a tad too powerful and not RAI. Basically it doesn't feel "right" to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race Bannon Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 To be sure, you're saying a Deathstorm DP should not use overwatch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTrans Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I think he is saying can it fire at all targets within range if it is 'clipped' for overwatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 Indeed. Overwatch only targets the unit that it charging. Does this ability overrule that (so does advanced > basic apply here)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interrogator-Chaplain Ezra Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Indeed. Overwatch only targets the unit that it charging. Does this ability overrule that (so does advanced > basic apply here)? Well, the rule for the specific weapon says it fires at everything every time you fire it. It would seem that RAW it goes off on overwatch shooting too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
