Ranged Shots

I had read somewhere (I believe it was a post from Adrael) that all ranks could shoot at large targets-Is this true? If so, where is it in the rule book? I have not been able to find it!

Thanks!

Warhammer Chronicles 2003 Page 132, Q&A, first column, second question in the SHOOTING section.

Q. Can models behind the first rank see a large target and shoot at them?

A. Yes they can.

There is still a grey area here though. If a dragon stands in front of a unit of archers ranked 5 across the front by 4 deep do they all shoot?

If you apply the Chronicles rule then yes, but, talking to Gav @ Gamesday he said only the front two.

Another example of GW not completely addressing rules issues methinks :lol:

So beware guys 'coz you might meet someone who queries this, but if it's in writing then it must be right...........?

The grey area become LOS if you assume normal 90 degree arc no grey area only Black and White (up the magpies)

i think that they have to draw a line somewhere...else there shoudl also be rules for the smaller targets, and some more specified distance-rules. i think that it just would make the rules more complicted...hope u all got the point of this post... :oops:

Hmm, still waiting on the Chronicles here-hopefully will be able to get them in about a week or so.
