The rules only say what happens to the target unit.

Forests are dense terrain, meaning you can see in but not through. What about corn fields? Do you have to declare beforehand how high the grain is?

<p dir=”ltr”>- The light mortars aren’t fixed, does that mean they’re allowed to move and fire?</p>

But it is not identical to the rules in the rule book.

– If a tank is damaged after being hit and rolls a 1-3 on the table, does it have to roll for the turret too or not?

– The barrage chart states that if a 1 is rolled, the projectile is moved in any direction, and…[Read more]

How about Mission 3 where the units are moved onto the field in waves. Can the Ranger Platoon move beforehand because there is no setup?

<p dir=”ltr”>And if a building is attacked, how many people are allowed to join the fight?  Since actually only 2 soldiers are allowed to shoot out of each window!</p>

Can he request them at the same time or does one have to be done first and then the second.

It would just be stupid if the first one didn’t come until the 5th round, then you wouldn’t have time to call the second one. :-))

I played Flames of War for 10 years and was captain of the Greek national team, then was a player in the German national team until Battlefront released V4. Now no one plays it and we’ve all switched to Bolt Action. So a bit of advice: The game really makes sense (there is no: why are they doing…[Read more]

In the building you get +2 on the hit roll for the down order.

In a ruin you get +2 for the Down Order and +2 for Hard Cover. In addition, in the case of a ruin, you place the template on the unit and determine the hits, while in the…[Read more]

1.) How do I move units in ruins with one or two floors? Are these the same rules as for buildings? Or is it dealt with more simply?

2.) Does the whole unit have to be placed on one floor or can I split the unit over two or three floors? (since they are…[Read more]
