1) Not quite how I'd read it. ?If the titan ends its' movement in base to base contact with say 1 building and 1 titan, then it can resolve its close combat against the titan getting +2D6 for the chain fists; and also attack the building, automatically hitting it twice with a -4 modifier. ?

It doesn't say anything about allowing the titan to do this during the movement phase!!!

so you can move your titan base to base to a house in the movement phase and stop your move. then you can attack the house with a chain fist or do you have to do so in the close combat phase? and then you can shoot in the advance phase, because the chain fist attack is additional??? i do not understand this additional attack and the way to handle it. please give me an better example.

So, a Chain Fist hitting a building is a close combat attack, so you would expect such an attack to happen in the close combat phase.  Nowhere in the Chain Fist description does it overrule that.....so it happens in the Close Combat phase.  (just read the rules as they are written!)

The Chain Fist does however say that this attack is IN ADDITION to other attacks, so yes you could give a titan with a chain fist an advance order, move it into base contact with a building, attack the building in the Close Combat phase and then shoot in the Advance phase.

is it right, that a titan can fire any kind of missle although e fire wth a plasma dstructor? because in the discription of the pasma dstructor i can find the part:"...not being able to fire any other ranged weapons.." and missles are not ranged, right?

On exactly which planet is a missile "not a ranged weapon" ????? :p

the range of the missle is LOS, so theoretical unlimited. if you do not want that anybody make wrong interpretations delete the word "ranged" in this sentense and keep it the way: "...can not fire any other weapon...!"

why to put that word "ranged" in this sentense. if you mean "all" weapons, delete that filler word. all members of our group were confused because that sentense.

delete all things to the chain fist in the rule book and write your sentense down:"...IN ADDITION to other attacks, so yes you could give a titan with a chain fist an advance order, move it into base contact with a building, attack the building in the Close Combat phase and then shoot in the Advance phase..."

you know every time i asked questions here i get easy answers and every time i ask my self why you do not write this easy sentenses in the rules...thanks for the clarification. :confuse:

It is not "ALL" weapons, just any RANGED weapon.  A RANGED weapon is anything that can hurt something that is not in base to base contact!  A weapon with LOS has unlimited RANGE.  I guess we must lose something in translation.   :p

So a Titan that fires off the Destructor can still use its Chain Fist, Power Fist, CLose Combat Head or Wrecker.....but not its Warp Missile or Volcano Cannon or Carapace Multilasers.  It does actually spell this out fairly clearly in both the Plasma Destructor and Plasma Cannon description.
