Hi Eivind and Nils!
Not to make a big deal about this, but if you re-read the rules, you may
discover something else. Page 25, 32 and 33 of the Titan Legions Rule
book describes Firing and Close Combat. The same rules are repeated in
Net Epic.
Titan Legions and Net Epic both state in thier rules that First Fire
units may change thier orders to Advance.
Does an unit on Advance orders get to fire in the First Fire phase? Can
a unit on Advance fire at Charging units? The answer to both questions,
is of course, no.
Can a unit with Advance orders, fire in the Advance Phase, after having
been attacked. Yes, the survivors get to fire. The stands that are
still pinned, do NOT get to fire. No unit, pinned in Close Combat may
fire, or be fired at. Unpinned stands can choose targets normally, and
fire in the Advance Phase.
An Example: Terminators on First Fire orders are charged by Gretchin.
The Terminators choose to go on Advance Orders. The Gretchin are wiped
out in Close Combat. The Terminators fire in the Advance Phase.
Are we in agreement now? What does everyone else think?
Warprat ;)
