Steeljackal replied to the topic balkas (ravines) and shell craters question in the forum Bolt Action 3 years, 10 months ago
As already written above, it is enough to agree between players.
We consider:
small craters: rought ground; no cover; does not block LOS
large crater (which can contain one unit inside) and deep: rought ground; cover -2 (terrain is hard cover, like trench or fox hole); does not block LOS*.NOTE *:For practical reasons often the craters are not…[Read more]

SteveT started the topic Excess casualties in the forum Hail Caesar 3 years, 10 months ago
If I understand it right, excess casualties are only removed after a break test.
So if you win a hand-to-hand fight you are not triggered to do a break test even if your casualties surpass your stamina? Is that right?
If right, they therefore keep any excessive casualties?
Very confusing.

Thinking about this more….since the heavy infantry would also be in open order in the woods, then other open order units would not be running rings around them :p

Master Chief replied to the topic balkas (ravines) and shell craters question in the forum Bolt Action 3 years, 10 months ago
Good question, they were mentioned in both books, more in Ostfront and less in Stalingrad, but no rules provided. I believe they should hinder movement, some may be impassable to certain units like wheeled vehicles.
But no rules provided, so players need agreement with each other on how these should be treated.

Master Chief replied to the topic Multiple automatic cannons. How to fire them. in the forum Bolt Action 3 years, 10 months ago
… but there are a number of circumstances where firing AP from an autocannon is a much better choice than HE …
Good point. For a single shot AP vs HE (such as the case of a Sherman), we should fire HE as even a 1″ gives at least 2 hits. For other cases it really depends on the luck of your roll, and the number of models in the target. Note…[Read more]

Very little description in the rules for these. Do they take the same order as their parent unit?

The FAQ is whats been said here and on the FB page…but focused on what has been released (ie the rules manual currently)… which is why theres some things (the Agano class cruisers traits* for example) that arent in it…
Now by Matts own admission the ability to put flights to scout is in the main rulebook and not in the QSR….and goes…[Read more]

Master Chief replied to the topic Multiple automatic cannons. How to fire them. in the forum Bolt Action 3 years, 10 months ago
Just to add:
Is it like a tank with multiple weapons where, although all the quads have to be declared at the same target, you roll each weapon individually?
Bolt Action rules 2nd Edition page 106:
When you fire one of these weapons, you roll a number of dice equal to the shots fired by each weapon, multiplied by the number of weapons. For…[Read more]

TWO OR MORE WEAPONS
ON THE SAME MOUNT (page 105)If a mount has several weapons using the HE special rule (you cannot decide that some of these weapons fire armour-piercing and some fire HE, they must all fire the same type of ammunition), roll to hit and then place a number of templates equal to the number of hits…[Read more]

SteveT started the topic Moving to flank from the front in the forum Hail Caesar 3 years, 10 months ago
According to the prolixity rule, if a unit starts in the front of an enemy, they can only go to or away from the unit.
First of all, what does this mean? Can any diagonal movement be include, if so how much?
But if I unit got 3 moves in a turn, uses the first to get out of proximity range, can its other moves be used to get round the flank or…[Read more]

SteveT started the topic Sideways on—options? in the forum Hail Caesar 3 years, 10 months ago
In the image I have a red formed unit that has ended up facing sideways to the enemy blue unit.
What is it allowed to do in terms of movement?
And similar if the red was changed to open order (right side of same pic) what are its options?

My take is the reserves in this scenario come onto the table anywhere on their side’s long edge.
