TACTICAL COMMAND

artillery fire, a hit causes a morale check. If dropping bombs or firing rockets, the airplane may
make a strafing attack on the same target after the bomb/rocket attack. Aircraft may not attack
any target in woods/forest/swamp, and may not attack infantry in towns.
LOSSES
The instant a company (or Russian tank battalion) takes at least ½ losses (in stands) and for each
stand lost thereafter, it must make a morale check. This morale check is subject to the following
modifiers. A failed check eliminates the rest of the company (or Russian tank battalion). Soft
transport vehicles do not count towards a formation's total stands.
-1 If any stand is out of range of the rest of the company (or Russian tank battalion)
-1 If Battalion (Russian tank brigade) HQ is lost or out of range
+1 If in hard cover
-1 if attacked by air/flamethrower/artillery in current turn
WEAPONS CHARTS
The weapons charts contain information for most combatants in World War II.
If "APC" appears after the name of the stand, that stand may transport up to 1 infantry stand or 2
support stands (MG, Bazooka, ATR, etc.) unless further indication gives the carrying capacity
for the stand.
The "Mov" column gives the movement allowance in inches for the stand. A "t" in this column
means the stand must be towed. A "w" after the movement allowance means the stand is
wheeled.
The "Armor" column gives the armor number for the front facing of the stand. An "s" in this
column means the vehicular stand is a soft target. Infantry and towed weapon stands are always
soft targets.
The "Pen" column gives the penetration number for the stand. A "-" in this column means the
stand has no anti-tank capability (note that a value of 0 still allows anti-tank fire). An "h" in this
column means the stand fires HEAT ammunition.
The "ROF" column gives the rate of fire for the stand. An asterisk in this column means the
stand has anti-aircraft capability.
The "Rng" column gives the effective range of the stand. For stands with indirect fire capability,
two values will be given: direct fire effective range before the slash, and indirect maximum range
after the slash. A "-" before the slash means the stand may not use direct fire. For example, a
British 25pdr firing directly at an enemy stand has an effective range of 8. That same 25pdr can
fire an indirect artillery mission up to 130 inches away (see Artillery rules for the minimum
range of indirect fire). For mortars the numbers preceding the slash give the effective range for
direct fire. For example, the effective direct-fire range for the German 120mm mortar is between
