Arty Gun

Yes, bazooka and Panzer can shoot at infantry. Unless you rule a one to wound, which is always  unsuccessful, that soldier will be dead if it was one of these weapons in the game. Real life, infantry soldier would’ve been blowing apart, and his friends will be looking for his dog tags in the goo.

Of course, penetration counts for all targets. This makes up for the difference between being hit by a pistol round, and a bazooka round.

If your unit wasn’t hit it shouldn’t suffer pins. If the round went off on the floor below they were not hit. I would keep it simple. At least the building is hit on a 2 next time.

I recommend you roll a D6. HE on 1 – 3, AP on 4 – 6.

This is good for all these types of issues.

Good-day,

One thing I would like to see that I didn’t notice is a change to HMGs. I recommend the range be extended from 36″ to 40″ to differentiate them a bit more, account for the longer ranges these weapons have in real life, and hopefully make them a viable option in V3.

I assume of course, they will do something to the points values for infantry…[Read more]

It says the medic team consists of the medic and his orderlies. I’m to Geneva convention it says the medic unit cannot fire – “Medic units can’t fire any weapons or assault into close order tests as normal if they are pinned.”p. 83.
So to my way of reading it, they did cover this rule but in two sentences. The orderlies cannot shoot and just ex…[Read more]
