I have a question, if you were to shoot at a dedicated transport and destroy it could you assault the troops that pile out in the same turn with the unit that destroyed the transport?

[Dezart Fox]

Nope as they're seperate units Can only assault what you shot at and as that's dead.. no assault.

Yeah thats what I was thinking, but I wasn't sure if being a dedicated transport made any difference in the matter.

Wrong. In the rulebook it says if you destroy the whole unit with shooting you can chose what to assault.

Where's it say that then? Says on pg 36 under shooting and assault that your primary traget has to be what you shot at.

so im guessing that Mr.X sounds right, then?

[Dezart Fox]

Well no, as far as I'm aware you have to shoot what you shot at, you shot at the rhino, the rhino died, it was your primary target.

If you'd have caused a penetrating hit, not destroyed it but forced to passengers to get out you could assault the rhino as your primary target and the troops as a secondary.

But I'll read up on it,

[greatmaju]

if your primary targets dead, then what, they wait sit around doing nothing, sems very stupid when they could get into H2H and kill more people. but yes, best thing would be to read up on it.

[Dezart Fox]

Only line I can find is on the page I said above. Unit must assault what it shot at.

[Droids_Rule]

I can't recall the page, although I'm nigh-certain Mr X is right.

Edit: Just looked about the rulebook. I can't seem to find the page, other than what Timjim has mentioned. For some reason or other, I know that it's stated somewhere. I just can't for the life of me find where.
