have you noticed all opportunity and return fire is done by the Lmg - if you have 1 figure to do opp/return fire with in the group its always the lmg. - which if your German is particularly nice with 4d6.

Now the rules state owners choice to which bases fire , but would it not be fairer if you diced for different weapons separately - oh that's complicated - not really you just use coloured dice , normally its 2 rifles and an lmg - so its 2 black dice 1 red

Methinks this might be a bit fairer - especially for all those players facing Germans.

Here's one for clarification please, German LMG gets an extra 2D6 once per turn.

So, if the German player is reactive (IE:2nd player) and takes an opportunity shot using its extra  2D6 during the active players turn, does it also get this 2D6 bonus again during its active phase??

Hi Alex, yes it does, this is to simulate its higher rate of fire in short bursts

Stewart,

Thanks just wanted to be sure I wasn't making over use of the 2D6 bonus.
