Swooping and firing 2 weapons

[rhawin]

I just wanted to check if i got this right!

Is it allowed to swoop in the beginning of your movement turn, move 24 and then fire 2 weapons (a HT could possibly fire 3 since Thorax Swarm is always allowed to fire if firing another).

If that is right its very nice!

But i have prob read something wrong

[coredump]

You have it right...

[rhawin]

WOW, now i definitely will add one been so so about doing it.

2x TL Devourers and a Thorax swarm, yummy

Except that you can't buy both Wings and a Thorax Swarm, you have to pick one or the other

[kenji10000]

I don't think you can take thorax swarm and wings...

Look at the Tyrant's entry again: take ONE of the following

I noticed that still 2x TL Devourers is good enough!

That's my favorite option actually! Swoop down the flank with my winged hive tyrant and unload some dakka!

[zargnath]

just don't forget that vector strike counts as a shooting attack so if you use vector strike you will only be able to use one pair of devourers

I find one set of TL Devs is enough on a Flyrant; as mentioned above, Vector counts as shooting and you also have psychic shooting attacks.

I always like to Swoop with a Harpy, drop Spore Mines, then fire its TL Heavy Venom and Cluster Spines/Vector strike as a sort of impromptu Alpha-Strike.

I'm not sure if dropping the spore mines in the movement phase counts as a 'bomber' attack though - the FAQ doesn't state it as such I believe. The Barrage type for bombing this way is nice for taking out Deathstars with softer cores, especially this Eldar Deathstar I fought recently with Karandras + Artificer armour and a Farseer casting Divination/Fortune (the reroll To Hits and Armour Save abilities).
