TACTICAL COMMAND

RARE VEHICLES
OPTIONAL RULES
The British Churchill AVRE and German Sturmmoerser Tiger must obey these special rules.
The Sturmmoerser may not fire and move in the same turn. The AVRE may do so, but must add
a +1 to its hit die roll or infantry die roll. Both ignore the effects of a target's cover. Any morale
check made by infantry/soft targets due to a Sturmmoerser or AVRE attack is modified by –1. A
Sturmmoerser stand may not fire more than 4 times in one game. An AVRE stand may not fire
more than 6 times in one game.
MINEFIELDS
Any infantry stand moving into an antipersonnel minefield zone takes a morale check; one check
is made per inch moved (fractions rounded up). Vehicles are immune to AP mines. Any vehicle
moving into an antitank minefield zone takes a morale check; one check is made per inch moved
(fractions rounded up). Personnel units are immune to AT mines.
Infantry engineers are immune to minefields. An engineer stand can clear a path through
minefields by spending 2 turns in a minefield without moving or shooting. Engineer clearance
vehicles (dozers, rollers, flails) are immune to mines and clear a path just by moving through.
The German Sturmmoerser and British AVRE can clear a path just by firing at the minefield.
BARBED WIRE
Infantry, halftracks, and wheeled vehicles must stop upon entering barbed wire and may move
out only in their next turn. Fully-tracked vehicles are immune. Infantry engineers are immune to
barbed wire and an engineer stand can clear a path by spending 1 turn in wire without moving or
shooting. An engineer stand can set up 1" of wire each turn by spending the turn without moving
or shooting. The German Sturmmoerser and British AVRE can clear 1" of wire just by firing at
it.
ROADBLOCKS
No vehicles may cross a roadblock. Infantry stands may cross roadblocks, and gain hard cover
hiding behind them. An engineer stand may clear a roadblock by spending 1 turn without
moving or shooting. An engineer stand may set up a roadblock by spending 2 turns without
moving or shooting (1 turn if helped by a bulldozer). Bulldozers automatically remove a
roadblock just by moving through. The German Sturmmoerser and British AVRE can clear a
roadblock just by firing at it.
LULL IN FIGHTING
If the die roll to determine which side moves first at the start of the turn results in a tie, there is a
lull in the fighting. Players may carry out any or all of the following actions:
Improve Positions: Personnel units may dig trenches and towed weapons may dig gun
emplacements (gaining soft cover).
