If a unit performs a 'snap-fire' what else can it do?
a: Nothing, this is it's action for the turn.
b: If the unit has more than one weapon (the one that snap-fired)
it may fire the other weapon(s) in the advance fire phase.
This is especially important to Titans, Super-heavies and
Praetorians. If snap-fire takes up ALL attacks this really hurts
the big guys.
