I'm embarassed but i have a question regarding Macro-weapong hit allocation.
In Assaults it is clear: You allocate regular hits, remove casualties, then allocate MW hits and remove casualties.
But does it work the same with regular shooting too? Or do you shoot regular weapons and MW weapons together and the opponent allocates the hits?
If you have a unit with BP and MW-BP and it would shoot both weapons do you combine alle the BP and thus loose MW? Or do you work out the results of the BP attack and then the results of the MW-BP attack?
I`m confused because under 2.2.6 Macro-weapons the order of the effects is: Shooting Attack, Barrages, Assaults and THEN Allocating Hits.
And the Allocating Hits part says:
Quote:
Allocating Hits: If an attacking formation scores hits both with normal weapons and weapons with the macro- weapon ability, then the opposing player must allocate and make any saves for the normal hits first, and then allocate and make any saves for the macro-weapon hits. Hits from macro-weapons can only be applied to units that are in a position to be hit by a macro-weapon.
Emphasis mine. Is the attacking formation the assaulting formation or the shooting formation or both?
