Thanks for tje answer.

I see what you mean. On page 124-5 in the rulebook it says what you Just pointed out, ignore only the cover penalty hits.

Now, I have another question about the DOWN part.

In normal situation when a player declares a fire order then the other players can choose DOWN before the roll for HIT.

But in the HE against…[Read more]

Another change I would implement is in the rulebook. I would put a lot of practical examples to better understand the rule. Something like when I asked about how to use the flamethrower ..

I would change the roll of dice that you need to get a 6 and the roll again and get another 6 to hit. The mathematical probability is (1/6)*(1/6) =1/36 that is to say … 2,78%

This is almost impossible. I would make it a fest roll of a 6 and the, the next one get a 4, 5 or 6.  This would be (1/6)*(1/2)= 1/12 that is to say 8,8%, a more…[Read more]

Thanks. It’s much simpler this way. 🙂

I was also wondering bout this point … um?

So, can you please confirm that with a 6 in roll to damage does NOT automatically kill but we have to use the damage table?

And what about the number of hit?

For instance, a German infantry squad of 10 men fire at a US jeep. The get 6 hits. Now do we roll 6 times for damage using the table?

I am confused …

Thanks.

And just last question in this thread … can you please tell me what US vehicles have that gyro stabilized gun?

All Shermann I suppose and?

Thanks

So, imagine that you hot roll of 4, +2 penetration, +1 Top part of the vehicle= 7

It matches the vehicle armor, this means superficial damage.

Now we roll for damages, with a -3 for superficial and a +1 for second open-topped penalty. We roll a 6, so 6 -3 +1 = 4 The vehicle is still knock out despite being a superficial damage.

Is this correct?

Thanks, Nat. This is getting clearer now!

So, if a medium mortar hits a bunker, it will never cause any kills inside and cannot destroy it because it is a HE 2″  weapon, D6 and you need at least 12 points (2D6) or more.

What about the pinning? Do I still roll a D3 to pin the soldiers inside?

Thanks

Thanks to both. Now, I understand the issue. 🙂

Thanks. It males perfect sense.

Helo everyone,

A new doubt came in yesterday´s game …

If a squad in in bottom floor of a two-story house and enemy mortar rolls a 6, hits and makes some kills with extra pins.

In the next turn, the survivors of the squad run up the second floor, Is is still a +2 for the mortar or a new beginning with a +6?

Thanks

I was wondering now about the advantages and disadvantages of having the flamethrower within the squad or as an independent small team.

Within the squad: A = You can chose other casualties except in exceptional damage rule, so sniper are lethal here. D= You cannot split the fire.

any other thought?

Thanks to both.

Nigel, the Greyhound had moved before so it could not have the recce reaction now, I guess, right?
