Yes it does…

The only way to give a disordered unit any order is to make the units Elite Roll…  it to show that if the rank & file are running round like headless chickens it doesnt matter what you shout they aint listening!

Thank you, Ben 🙂

after more feedback and differences in how people read stuff another wardroom file.

BA is not an exact reprentation of real WW II.  Just a fun game. For Panterfaust 150 the German forces had a Splitterring that could be fixed and
