I’ve been thinking about how to improve the buildings without the Extra Protection Rule.

The solution would be to have Cover Saves in Direct HE and maybe even in Indirect HE. IMHO, the cover save should be higher than hard cover, maybe a +3 (to simulate the extra protection rule).

What do you guys think?

Ok, I see your point … a big splash could be useful in some specific cases.

Thanks a lot. It’s clear now.

I completely agree with you. I will try in my next game.

After many games now, I really miss the extra protection rule.

Is there any possibility of reimplementing this rule in the v3 rulebook in a future errata or a future 3.5v???

Thanks it is clea now. 🙂

What about a bazooka or a panzerfaust (hollow charges)? Can they shooting against infantry? How would it work?

Flamethrower against open-topped vehicles. Does the open-topped also have the double penalty like with HE? +1 penetration and + 1 Damage chart.

I cannot find in the rulebook if the flamethrower causes this double penalty in open-topped … page?

Thanks 😊 Stuart. Perfectly clarified.

Thanks Stuart. It’s very clear 👌 I missed the … ‘or less’ part.

One new doubt …

A flamethrower can benefit from short distance too? I mean, a flamethrower firing without moving at a distance of 2 inches, is that … ÷3 with modifiers short distance and point blank … a 2+ would correct?

Got it Stuart. Thousands of thanks. I will modified the example for my personal FAQ. 🙂

Thanks you very much Stuart. You’re very patient with me. I am struggling with the rules, but I am starting grab some complex issues. Thanks a lot 🙂

Let see if I get the example right now.

In the set-up. German player deploys a sniper team inside a building on the second floor.

Then in the first turn, the British player deploys a Cromwell tank. The Cromwell tank advances and fires its main gun with HE (2″) and its machine gun to a second floor of a building where a German sniper h…[Read more]
