---------> Well, everyone keeps saying it says one-shot in the rules,
but after poring thru the book, it doesn't.Not in the orky army section,
not on the Mega control sheet, and these missiles aren't in the
superheavy weapons section of the rules. They aren't vortexes, as they
are an automatic AT on anything under the marker, not d6 death rays. As
far as "by definition", what definition? Can we assume that anything
labeled as a (singular) "missile" is automatically a one shot? I can
live with it, being a long-time SM/TLer, but so many other assumptions
based on that have been wrong, I can't go with "cause that's the way it
was before".
And, um, ,all you "it's in the rules" people: find me a page number...
