Ok, so a few questions came up during my game with Tim last night and I've been unable to find the answers in the book. So I'm just going to ask them here and if other questions come up in future games, I'll just add them to the thread.

 

1. I wanted to fire my panzerschrecks at a house that had an enemy team inside. I was in range, but neither Tim nor I knew how to go about it or what the 'shreck was capable of doing. Haven't found rules in the book about firing anti tank weapons at units in bulletproof cover.

 

2. I assaulted his artillery with my infantry. Does his artillery teams have any rifles or anything to conduct defensive fire with?

 

3. After killing a few teams, Tim decided to break off (I'm forget why) and he said that because his gun teams were immobile and one was within 4 inches, he had to sacrifice it. Is this how this works, and does it sound reasonable? I didn't understand what was going on during that part of the game and I've been trying to reconstruct the situation in my head and I believe it's how I described, so I'm just looking for confirmation and explanation from someone who has more experience.

 

I think there were others but I can't remember them now.

 

THANKS! :)

Hey Brandon:

 

1.  The rules I believe are the same for teams in bulletproof cover.  If they save, you make a firepower test based on your weapons firepower rating, if you pass your firepower test, the team is destroyed.  See pg. 73 of the Main Rule book.

 

2.  They don't have any.  Refer to the weapons stats in the theatre or battle book you are using.  This lists the available weapons to the platoon.

 

3.  Tim was correct.  See "Breaking Off"  Pg. 110 of the main rulebook.

 

Hope this helps.
