If I have a squad equipped with template weapons such as flamers, can I fire them out of, say, the top hatch of a rhino?
I ask this because, if the top hatch is the point of origin, then the only way to place the flamer template would be to place it such that part of it covers the hull of the rhino. If the unit inside is firing the flamer, is it disallowed from firing because the template is touching a friendly model? Or is this an exception to the rule that you can't torch your own guys? Is the rhino hit, which could theoretically damage it, or is it ignored?
What do you think? Can anyone reference any part of the rule book that would allow for template weapons firing from vehicles?
