TACTICAL COMMAND

of the firer causes a morale check. Each additional hit modifies the morale check roll by –1. A
non-turreted weapon may only fire from its front arc (180 degrees). If conducting fire after
movement, roll a save on 1d6. A 5 or 6 means the attack has no effect. If any stand is firing a
fixed weapon after movement, a 4, 5, or 6 on the save die means the attack has no effect.
Apply a -1 to the roll of a stand firing at a target that is in soft cover (woods/forest, swamp,
entrenchments, gully, hedges, etc.) and that has not moved in the current turn.
Apply a -1 to the roll of a stand firing at a target at long range and a +1 to a stand firing at short
range. Note that mortars do not have a short range.
Apply a -2 to the roll of a stand firing at a target that is in hard cover (towns, bunkers, walls, etc)
and that has not moved in the current turn.
Apply a +1 to the roll of a stand firing at a target that has moved or is moving if attacked by
Overwatch/Hold Fire.
CLOSE COMBAT
Close combat occurs when enemy stands touch each other. Infantry can automatically dismount
in close combat. Soft vehicles and towed weapons are automatically destroyed prior to any close
combat rounds. Each side gets one die roll per round. High roll wins the round and the
difference is the number of stands eliminated (opposition's choice). No stands are eliminated if
the result is a tie. Rounds continue until all stands on one side are eliminated. The rolls are
modified by
+1 Per extra stand above 1
+2 Per AFV vs enemy infantry (N/A if enemy AFV also in the close combat)
+2 Per engineer (represents flamethrowers and satchel charges)
+1 Per ATR attacking vs AFV (N/A if enemy infantry also in the close combat)
+2 Per PIAT/Bazooka/ATRL vs enemy AFV (N/A if enemy infantry also in the close combat)
+1 Per SMG stand vs enemy infantry (N/A if enemy AFV also in the close combat)
-1 Per MG-armed AFV in CC with any enemy gun-armed AFV
+1 For CC against any pinned units
+2 For CC against any suppressed units
FLAMETHROWERS
Infantry flamethrowers may only attack in Close Combat. AFV flamethrowers always fire at the
flank of enemy AFV. AFV flamethrowers ignore the effects of a target's cover.
