Hi
Just a few questions on buildings and transports.
1. Can a unit in a vehicle run out of and into an unoccupied building?
2. Can a unit in a building run out and then into a different building in the same move?
3. Can a unit in a building run out and assault another building that is not joined to the current one? (I think not).

Thanks
Philip

Hi
On P125 the rules cover Artillery Barrages on buildings.

It does not mention about working out which floor is hit. Does it therefore hit units on both floors?

Also if normal indirect HE scores a hit you work out the floor then dice for number of hits and pins. I assume the pins are just for the floor that get hit?

Regards
Philip

Hi

Just looking for some clarifications.

P72 says that you pick first target unit as normal. You then check for other units within 6″ of the original template. Does this mean from the edge or the centre of the template?

If you hit one of the units within 6″, when you place the template does the centre have to be within 6″ of the original template?

Also if you miss the first target do you still get the chance to throw hits for the other units within 6″ of the original template?

P97 Smoke. If you hit the original target point and you then throw a D3-1 and get say 2 extra smoke circles….. Are these placed so that the whole smoke circle is within 6″ of the initial target point or is it the centre of the smoke circle has to be within 6″?

Thanks for any help. I just find these rules a bit confusing.

Hi
I have been struggling for a 500 point list. The one I am using at the moment is as attached with mixed results.

Any comments or alternative ideas would be helpful.

Thanks
Philip

Hi

I have played a few games now. Understand most of the rules but still learning about some of the finer points of the rules.

Just some assault questions….
1. My understanding is that when assaulting enemy on another floor within the same building, the combat is simultaneously?
2. Do team weapons (MMGs, Mortars, etc.) fight with their crew if assaulted (i.e. if there are three crew they get 3 assault dice)?
3. Can team weapons crew launch an assault an enemy unit?
4. As long as the closest figures in the charging unit and the enemy unit are within 12″ the assault is successful regardless how far the other figures are from each other? This may mean that the furthest figures may have to move well over the 12″.

Hi

Thanks for the information.

Will the passengers receive the same number of pins as the vehicle or do I need to throw for them separately?

So the passengers can be pinned while in a vehicle?

Hi

New to Bolt Action.

Can an infantry section assault an occupied house from behind a garden wall? Since they have to use the Run command I guess they cannot since they have to jump over the wall first.

Thanks
