Are a Unit of Guardians with a Gun T7?
As the subject states, if a unit of guardian takes a scatter laser jigger, are they T7 according to the artillery rules?

Isn't that rule for 'units' of artillery? I don't have my BRB with me.

In the appendix, I don't see a "unit type" of "artillery", although I agree with that, it should be for artillery battery things. I think this is the only grey area... maybe IG can do that too???

When I was reading the artillary rules I had ork aritllary and Thunderfires in my mind as I was trying to transfer the rules to game terms. But, that being said I really don't remember too much of the artillary part, except thinking they got better.
As of now Guard don't have anything that fits those rules, their stuff is all gun teams or vehicle mounted.

Basically, they count as Majority T7, the gun has 2 wounds and a 3+ save, closest models are still removed first, and use their own save.
Basically, with Orks, you can have a biggish unit of T7 grots. 3 Lobba's or Cannon's would be fairly cheap, do stuff, and be difficult to displace.

Good deal to have your techmarine standing out front of your thunderfire now, to take the wounds at T7 with his 2+/4+ cover (3+ in ruins)!

Yeah.. Looks exactly like that. It says you always use the toughness of gun for wounds. .. Then allocate accordimgly.
Grots hiding behind a gun in cover is not to bad.
Dislodging a techmarine standing in front of his thunderfire in some ruins hes fortified sounds like a major pain to kill.

Oh.. As for the guardians.
Is the unit that takes the scatter laser turned to an artillery unit. Im guessing those guys remain infantry.

So you put the gun out front of the unit!

The gun is treated like a marker, it's not artillery, etc.

ya the guardian gun isn't an artillery piece,
as miv305 said, its a counter that is shot by the gunners.
the Eldar do however have artillery units with D-Cannons/Webspinner guns/Vibrocannons, its just that nobody used them over Falcons/Wraithlords/Dark Reapers/War Walkers/Fire Prisms.

The gun does not count for anything in the guardian unit it is simply a marker (and can even be removed if its in the way) it can be fired by either of the gunners. So no T7 there (though that woulda been awesome). I find its true theres no unit type artillery...but i think they outline it fairly clearly what is artillery and what is not.
