So the Manticore is allowed one shot per turn thanks to limited ammo, but it has 4 weapons. The techpriest gives potms to a unit allowing it to fire one more weapon than usual per turn. So with a priest a Manticore should be able to fire two of its storm eagle rockets in the same shooting phase if i'm reading this correct right?
If I am wrong please tell me so I can stop imagining the firepower of using three manticores to fire >6 S 10 pie plates on turn 1...

I don't know about that, since the Manticore doesn't have four Storm Eagle Rockets, it has a single weapon called "Storm Eagle Rockets" with the Limited Ammunition special rule that counts it as four one-shot weapons for the purpose of Weapon Destroyed results.
However, if true, this would also mean that the Manticores in question could fire two Storm Eagle Rockets per turn each at a different target. To quote Susan Ivanova, "You'll find their firepower quite impressive, for a few seconds."

Ohhh so since it just says "Storm eagle rockets" rather than 4 storm eagle rockets in the wargear they all count as a single weapon then... I think i may have just gotten caught up in reading the limited ammo rule. Almost a relief though.. as a player of blob guard seeing three manticores is already a large enough headache without double shots.
