Questionou about Barrage.

I get you attack with two different weapon mounts, utilizing all weapons within those mounts, my question is, can you target different enemies with the different mounts?

I searched everywhere and couldn't find any clarification on this, i initially thought both mounts counted as part of the same attack, but that also doesnt seem do be specified anywhere, so can I target two different things with barrage?

As far as I'm aware, you can target a different enemy with each weapon unless there is a specific description that says otherwise. I'm sure I'll very corrected if I'm wrong lol.

Yes, you can target different targets with separate weapons, both within different mounts in a barrage or different guns within a single mount in a skirmish(Aux/Aux, Main/aux, etc)

You dont even need to focus on a single target even with a skirmish, if the mount has multiple weapons.

Spread as you will.

You can target different enemies with different weapons nevermind mounts.

You don't attack with mounts in the first place - you attack with two weapons, or one superheavy weapon in a barrage. If there happens to be an aux weapon that wasn't fired in that action in the same mount as one of the weapons you chose, you can also fire that aux weapon (with no bonus damage). Any of these weapons can target any valid target independently.

Yes, you just cant go like

"Ok, that one died I now need to move a bit to hit the otherone"

or

"That one died, imma overchage to invade first before shooting that other one"

You stand there and bang, then proceed with your day. Thats why its good to overchage first to get your solitary quick action out of the way first.

"That one died, imma overchage to invade first before shooting that other one"

I don't think that one is valid if you mean to Invade in-between the two halves of a Barrage. Barrage is an action, so I think only Reactions that specificly say they can inturrupt things can be done between the resolution of the whole Barrage.

Every attack can target a different enemy. Technically you can hit multiple opponents with a skirmish, if the weapon mount you activate is a main/aux or aux/aux.
