Hi guys,

Can anyone help me with a couple of questions for the Capitol imperialis in 2nd edition:

It says the behemoth cannon can fire up to 4 times a turn - does this mean 1 barrage marker 4 times a turn or does this mean 4 barrage markers 4 times a turn (I think it’s the latter).

Since the behemoth cannon fires barrages does this mean it can fire indirectly (does this apply to any weapon that fires a barrage?)



Many thanks,

Rob.

When it says it can "shoot up to 4 barrages a turn" it's just referring to the 4 barrage markers I believe (ie not 16 barrage markers per turn).

They'd be able to fire indirectly since there's nothing in the rules to say otherwise. I should think you place the barrage markers first then roll to scatter for each (as per the Imperator's Hellstorm).

Note that strangely it looks like you still give the Capitol Imperialis orders (unlike the Colossus), so it would need to be on First Fire to fire an indirect barrage.

Cool - many thanks! - so can you only fire indirect barrages on first fire?

Yes, and only if some of your other forces have line of sight on where you're aiming the barrage.

Awesome
