Especially large ships can have up to four weapons on one face. Can you link three, four, or more (see question below) weapons together?
Also, are linked weapons considered a single weapon for the purposes of how many you can put in a single facing?
Necro..... Anyone got an answer to this?
I assume it is legit and you just pay 50% the subsequently linked weapon, up to the maximum allowed in a given arc.

Question 1: Can I link more than one weapon?
Looking at the sidebar, it says link two, not link two or more. And, from the way these things play out in practice, I can't see allowing linking more weapons leading to things working well?
Question 2: Do they count as one weapon for what you can put in a facing?
No, there's no reason to think they don't still occupy their own mounts.
Question 2, they still occupy their own mounts is a very fair answer. I can't see any reason why they wouldn't.
Though for question 1, I clearly missed it said 2. Though an argument could be made that from the first link on, all links count as 1, therefore any subsequently linked weapon would be the second, making a total of 2. But that's some fierce attempts at parsing a sentence in the most absurd ways lol.
I personally don't see that it's be too big of a problem to allow additional links. But it does seem that the rules preclude this.
Well, you can link two Twin Laser mounts; however, from a rules standpoint a Twin Laser is a single weapon.
