Can an RXB multishot when shooting as a charge reaction?

Post by Venkh »

Silly question eh? Of course they can! But wait...

Pg 55. of the BRB

"Some missile weapons enable their users to shoot several times in each shooting phase - known as multiple shot."


The multi shot rule only mentions multiple shots in the shooting phase. S&S takes place in the movement phase. Therefore no multi shot as a charge reaction.

I have to say that I dont agree, The quoted text is just preamble for the actual rules. Unfortunately they arent in italics so who is to say what is a rule and what is background?

Thanks to Akuma on Warseer for starting the original debate

Im not sure if a womans silence is worse than harsh words. Very sorry I really should know better.
