ok, tried to push some things around to get the feel of a turn.

Issue: Mechanized Infantry in Combat. What does a BMP or Bradley or Marder use in Fire Combat vs each other? the Infantry (1K/1S) or the ATGM (1S)?

Weasel30 Apr 2015 12:15 p.m. PST

They are Infantry for all purposes of receiving fire unless something explicitly says otherwise. (Lots of squishy targets in a mech inf unit)

Jozis Tin Man30 Apr 2015 12:32 p.m. PST

Mech Infantry shoot at each other as Infantry targets, so Bradley versus BMP would be 6" 1K /2 S (they get +1 S for infantry targets)

Let us know how you get on!

just wasn't sure, thanks for the clarification

Weasel30 Apr 2015 12:56 p.m. PST

Never a prob!

but not a +1 for unkempt shubbery on a hill

Weasel30 Apr 2015 2:23 p.m. PST

Maybe it's imported East German military shrubbery? :-)

creativeguy30 Apr 2015 2:32 p.m. PST

If so, it must pass the shubbery reliability roll.

Hey, you never mentioned it was unkempt shrubbery that may have thorns ;)

V/R,

Now gentlemen, there is no need for such shrubbish! Get back to stacking sand bags on that redoubt, please.

+1 for charging with proper shears

"+1 for charging with proper shears"

+2 if they attach to the bayonet lug.

Weasel, there is no justice in the world if there is not a Great Garden War in your next nation generator.

Ask a silly question…

The good news is my fans are friendly and loyal.
The bad news is they are all bonkers :-)

It must have been Thursday, I could never get the hang of Thursday.
