Played our 1st game yesterday, went pretty well. A couple of questions came up.
What are the penalties for charging in to combat and then shooting the person you are fighting?
In theory it looks as though you could lose
-2 for opponent moving
-4 because you are moving
-4 for shooting into a fight
This gives a minimum minus of 8 if the opponent was stationery and -10 if they had moved.
This seems far far too harsh. Do you discount the moving penalties??
-4 to shoot and move seems a very high penalty anyway, regardless of whether you are moving into combat? Pretty much impossible to move and shoot, is that correct??
2nd Question - Flamethrowers ignore armour values and roll against 7. Is this true when firing against armoured cars and walkers. I am assuming because of the fragile nature of even a tank in VSF that it is true.
What is the best way of disabling an armoured car or walker?
Am I correct, if you have an armoured car with a machine gun and the SV of the gunner is only +1 then you may only fire the machine gun at a single person, you can't split to hit multiple targets?
