Shooting into combat
It is possible to shoot into a combat situation where a model in your posse and a model in your opponents posse are fighting.
If you elect to do this, an additional step in the shot vs defence flow of events can occur. (For full breakdown of actions, See post ‘Shooting Mechanics’ for full breakdown).
If you elect to shoot into combat, you as the shooting player select your model to shoot and select your opponents model that is in combat.
If the shot vs defence test, as the shooting player, passes, you proceed onto the damage step as you normally would if you had shot an opposing model outside of combat
If the shot vs defence test fails when shooting at an opponents model who is combat with a friendly model in your posse, the shot is a fail. In circumstances where you would be shooting a model not in combat, you do not proceed to the damage step, however, to represent the whirling chaos of shooting into combat, your friendly model in combat takes one unsoakable damage as penalty.
