8th Ed. Ancient Steg Blowpipe

[Acorn Lord]

Does the ancient steg get 2d6 shots for both blowpipes or 2d6 shots for each blowpipe?

I believe it is 2d6 shots for each blowpipe; so 4d6 shots in total. A weapon profile always describes the function of a single weapon and you then multiple that by the number of such weapons in the unit.

it is each.

and that's one of the reasons you saw the ancient steg over the regular one.
(don't forget the other skink crew have a ranged attack too)

Thanks guys! I've been doing 2d6 for both, but everyone does 4d6 in all of the bat reps I watch.
