Perry answered here a question related to an old thread I don't remember...

Situation :

A squad has first fired a MG - losing ROF - but not its Inherent FP yet.
The MG is marked by a First Fire counter, but not the squad.


Questions :

1) May the MG Subsequent First Fire without the Inherent FP of the squad ?
No.


2) May the MG subsequent First Fire, adding the Inherent FP of the squad ?
Yes [EXC: if firing outside the max. range of the squad, though in this case
the squad is still considered to fire (though to no effect)].



2b) In this case, does the squad's FP apply fully or halved (the example given after the rule calculates the squad's Inh FP as not halved) ?
Halved IFP. See the errata to the EX.


3) Must the squad normally first fire before it can use the MG in SFF ?

No.

4) Can an MG be considered a "unit" as per the definition of the SFF rule ?
No.
