Starting this as I'm aware of loaded a few questions into another thread that might get lost.

Please add your queries here so Martin has one place to look when he gets the chance.

What does the bodyguard do? Other than dying when the general does, I can't see what he adds.

Thanks for doing this Sean.
At the moment the body guard can die for the general and also be included in assaults as target or assaulter.

I think we might need a thread for each successive version of the rules, Sean.

True  but at the moment they're coming thick and fast!  :D

Colonel Kilgore

Indeed.

Yesterday's query and answer is no longer valid today...

Helicopter rules. New rules say RCL, mortar and heavy armour cannot shoot at helicopter on one line.
Then it says they can shoot at proximity on the next line.
Can they or can't they?

So does that mean the bodyguard cannot save for himself. If the general has to roll a save and fails the bodyguard dies instead. That's his only role in the game?

( OK just noticed that version K has come out so this may be different)


What is Maertin going to do after 26 versions? Go to ver AA?

Version K? I've only got version G.

Bodyguard team  can be hit and save.
If the general dies, the bodyguard can take his place. It is their job.
The bodyguard can also join in on fights.

I think an old sentence remained in the book John. RCL, heavy armour et al cannot shoot at helicopters.

I am expecting helicopters to do a bit of damage then go.
There has only been one game with a helicopter in it so far.


martin ???

The amount of changes will lessen soon.

Moggy

The amount of changes will lessen soon.

Yeah Yeah Yeah !

LOL

I think most of us are used to rapid changes early on as things come and go, before they plateau off as we near the finish line.

Keep it coming!

I think Derek is mixing his P'sand Q's.

What until we get to O's!

 Or as my granny used to say "Mind your Ps and Qs or you'll have to mind your Rs".

Version G
Section 15 page 25 Unit Leaders
Bullet point states that ULs can't shoot (think that's got left in from SCW).
