Thanks for that Empirespy.
This topic begs the question of the Valk with it's Hellstrike missiles(which are ordnance).
Would the Valk fire both at full BS or only one? I would say only one. Page 71 clearly uses the word 'weapon' as opposed to 'weaponS'. It couldn't Snap Fire the other missile because it is ordnance.

Ymmot,
The more I read the rule sets over and over.. the more I'm beggining to agree with you.
It makes all the non-ordinance russ's very viable again.

Hmmm, I can still see both arguments as valid. Oh well... Hi you all, Sadly enough I think on page 426 the answer is shown. just above the table "How many weapons can a vehicle fire at full BS" it says: The notable exception to this is Ordnance weapons. Firing an Ordnance weapon means that a vehicle can only make snap shots with its other weapons that turn (see page 71) with "the notable exception" referring to the table which follows and says All All after Heavy.

Yeah, I saw that. That pretty much clears it up. Still wondering how the Valk with Hellstrike missiles would be used.

Still wondering how the Valk with Hellstrike missiles would be used. That was a really good question Rook. I think that the flyers rules on page 80 gives us an answer though, under zooming and shooting it states that: Zooming flyers can fire up to four of their weapons using their full Balistic Skill if they have moved at either Combat or Cruising Speed that turn.So I think if your Valk is zooming it can fire both, maybe it can't if it is hovering though :/
