I have heard that when using a markerlight for say a rail gun that it hits on a 2+ and ignores cover but i cant seem to find this ( the bit about cover) in the codex. i can find the bit that confirms the 2+ (page 19) can anyone confirm that it does ignore cover (with page no) or put me right if not.

cheers

Tau FAQ 4.01 introduced this rule. It's available for D/L from GW's website.

Hey guys

Under the Important Topics sticky, at the top of this Tau board, you'll find a link inside: GW Resources which contains all those rule updates and everything else available from them that you could possibly need.

While E - Yes it ignores cover

Cheers!

Reaper Claw

"Targets illuminated my markerlights that are subsequently hit by wapons using the markerlight to improve their chance of hitting do not recive cover saves"

"A unit that fires at an enemy that has been illuminated by a markerlight must still be able to draw a line-of-sight to engage it, unless they are firing a seeker missile or smart missile"
