If I can see a non-leader speeder bike in my rear arc and land a harpoon hit, do I pivot both minis?

From page 37:

Quote

To pivot, a player rotates the unit leader’s base around the
base’s center point. The center point of the unit leader’s base
should remain in place throughout the pivot.

If a notched-base unit contains multiple miniatures, each
mini in the unit must pivot so the orientation of its base
matches the orientation of the unit leader’s base.

Haha, it’s a bit strange, but you actually rotate the unit leader which is out of your LOS in this case. And then the other mini follows.

Incidentally, it’s pretty difficult to do given that it’s one die and the bikes have cover 1.

That would be pretty sweet to land a crit though and rotate them to fly off the table if they are near an edge.

I did land a hit, and tried to do exactly this! They don't have to fly off the edge, but the damage they would take would destroy one of the bikes outright. It's a bit wonky that you can have only the non-leader in arc and move the leader as a result, but it's consistent with the rules.

Did you land a hit or crit?

Rolling a single hit against Speeder Bikes does nothing because they just cancel it with "Cover 1".

To use the harpoon special you need to have them in range 2 of your rear arc, need to roll a crit (12.5% chance), and you need to get past their defense roll (total of 8.3% chance).

It's definitely doable, but hard to pull off (once every 12 attack rolls on average assuming you get them in the firing arc and range)

If you did pull that off, can I trade my dice for yours?

Why would you want to do that?

Those dice are scheduled to fail the next 11 times....
