Post by: ace67 on September 05, 2008, 01:44:57 PM

what is the cool of my mechs for bail out tests?
when i buy an upgade for my cool, say geen to vet for my yanks do i pay

I have the rules, but haven't played them yet. Maybe your better off posting on the SOTR forum? The rule designers are on there and pretty quick to reply to questions. :)

Hi ACE67,

As I read it, EACH vehicle counts as a separate unit so coherency rules DO NOT APPLY. The rule for purchasing light mechs is that only similar mechs can be bought this way ( you can't buyt 3 totally different light vehicles for one support choice)

The cool for all "Vehicle Crews" in the game is rated as VETEREN for Bail-out checks etc, which would include Mech crews. ( SOTR Errata page on the SOTR Forum)

Upgrades to COOL only count for core units for the entire platoon but do NOT include any Support choices.

Hope that's of some help.

Regards
PM

No problem.
I don't know how big the GW template is but if you go to:
http://secretsofthethirdreich.com/forums/
You can download all the templates in their download section.
They've also got the Errata sheet in the "Rules Questions" section.

That could be it. I remember being logged out once and there were fewer boards.

I tried to send the templates and errata on the 9th of SEP but it said your mailbox was full and bounced it back.
