Couple of newbie questions

By Sophiearcher, in Rules

Mainly to do with E web heavy blaster teams. Can they move then go into stand by? Can they fire and then move (not sure if cumbersome stops that or only move then shoot) And can they fire with their first action, use their generator upgrade then recover to re ready it for next turn?

Yes! There is nothing preventing that. In fact, it was specifically clarified in the FAQ thread and now in the updated RRG (the stormtrooper rocket launcher was the weapon in question at that time). When you perform the attack from standy it is not "during your activation", so the cumbersome restriction doesn't apply anymore. (See page 25.)

No. Cumbersome does not allow you to perform moves (except "pivots") and attacks within the same activation, no matter the order. (Also page 25.)

Yup!

Yup!

thanks a lot! must of missed it in the FAQ thingy, i swear i looked >.>

No problem! I think they ended up removing it from the FAQ, actually. That's been serving as a temporary stop-gap for clarifications before they make it into the RRG.
