[Epic] Firepower - My 5 cents

I say 5 cents because we have abolished 1 and 2 cent coins here. Anyway,
here in Western Australia we have finally been delivered Firepower to our
GW store (which is only about a month old now). I haven't managed to read
all of it yet, but though I might add a few comments.

Flak - these units are quite significant now, but I can still see the point
of going on flak! orders. However what I am not too clear about is can a
flak unit on flak! orders fire its rounds at incoming flyers (e.g. 3
firepower vs a target) and then snap fire at it (1 dice attack) at each and
every other target - including the one originally attacked? I suspect it
could attack the others, but snap firing at the same target might be a bit
much.

Super Heavy Tanks - initially it talks about super heavy tanks SUCH AS ...
then makes specific references to the Baneblades, Shadowswords and Ork
Battlefortresses. What I'm not too clear about is do these rules apply to
Eldar ones as well (which actually describe them as super heavy tanks in
their description). I hope so otherwise it disadvantages the Eldar
compared to the Imperials. The Eldar ones are more vulnerable due to their
5 armour, but less so as they can pop up attack.

Nuff Said
