HE PIN MARKERS meaning?

[Jvr1979]

What is meant regarding HE Pins D2 D3 or D6?

[Stuart Harrison]

Instead of the shooting unit causing one pin from the hits on that target unit, you roll a die for the number of pins caused.

[Jvr1979]

so if it says D3 then you roll 3 six sided dice and add the total and that is how many pins that unit recieves?

[Stuart Harrison]

No. D stands for dice, the number represents the number of sides on the dice for that roll. If there is a number before the D, that is the number of dice you roll.

ie:

D2 means a 2 sided dice (flip a coin or roll a six sided dice, 1,2 or 3 = 1, 4,5 or 6 = 2)

D3 means a 3 sided dice (roll a 6 sided dice, 1 or 2 =1, 3 or 4 = 2, 5 or 6 =3)

D6 means a six sided dice.

2D6 means two six sided dice, and so on.

See p 27, Basic Supplies, Dice and Markers, D6s for the “by the book” explanation.
