Firing more than one weapon in overwatch
#1
One for Rob as we was talking about this the other day with regards battlesuits and if they could fire both weapons in overwatch, found the thread on dakka-

Page 21 - Resolve Overwatch:
"An Overwatch Attack is resolved like a normal shooting attack (albeit one in the enemy's Assault phase) and uses all the normal rules for range, line of sight, cover saves and so on."

Additionally, under Weapons (Page 51), it says:
"Unless otherwise stated, if a model has more than one Shooting weapon, he must choose which one to shoot - he cannot fire both in the same Shooting phase."

Being the Overwatch fires all the normal rules for shooting (albeit, snapshots only), it is held by the one-weapon-unless-stated rule.

Meaning that most models can fire 1 weapon.
Models with two pistols can fire both pistols.
MCs and Battlesuits can fire 2 weapons.
Riptides can fire 3 weapons.
Walkers can fire all weapons.
