Yes if you move the ravager ^2 or more it can only receive glancing hits.

If you do move over 6" you may fire one heavy weapon and as many defensive weapons as are on the vehicle. The heavy weapons for a ravager are a dark lance and the disintergrator fired on max (The higher strength shot) defensive weapons are a disintergrator fired on sustained (lover strength shot) or a horrorfex.

If you move over 12" you cant fire any weapons.

I personally go for the 1 Dark Lance ("DL" for short) and one Disintegrator ("Dis" for short ) as it gives you the options of going tank hunting if need be, and also gives you plenty of power armour popping power!

As to your question, you can move 12", pop a shot from your DL and then use your Dis's on Sustained fire setting without worry. If you want to fire on maximal, you need to stay put or move up to 6".

No, you must move under 6" like 5.99999" to be able to fire all main weapons, if you want to receive glancing hits only, you have to sacrifice the amount of weapons you may fire.
