    Reasonably sure I am doing this right but …

    A vehicle that has not been given no order this turn is assaulted by infantry who are under 6″ away. It cannot shoot in defence.  Does a vehicle with Recce have the same restriction? I think so.  The question arose as the recce vehicle was backed onto the table edge and had nowhere to run,

    Bolt Action FAQ:

    If a recce vehicle is charged by an enemy that starts the assault from within 6″, which rule takes precedence, the Surprise charge (so the vehicle cannot react with either a shooting or an escape move), or the escape reaction (so the vehicle cannot react by shooting, but can react by escaping)?

    The Surprise charge takes precedence, so if a recce vehicle is assaulted from within 6″, it cannot react with either a shooting or an escape reaction.

    If it is caught by suprise by an enemy within 6″ it doesn’t deserve the name ‘Recce’. 🙂 🙂
