Thread for rules questions.

First one from me is a bit silly.

Imperial Guard Sgt can "exchange his las pistol for an item from the ranged weapons list".

Checks list.......

Battlecannon 22 points... hmmmm

More seriously can I really give my Sgt a sniper rifle for 2 points?

Cheers,
Dave

The wargear lists are on page 11 (page 1 of the pdf). A Sergeant can take a Bolt Pistol, Boltgun, or Plasma Pistol.

Worth noting that units that have the fly special rule are not effected by the fall back rule of not being able to shoot after falling back. Makes Tau battlesuits a bit better.

That would have helped a bit. I should probably read through the main rules again now I've played a few games
