My tools are in perfect working order, thankee, as is their wielder
There are more than one way to skin a cat than to kick its ******** teeth in! That said, i'm sure that i have only scratched the surface of the nuances in CoC.
Actually, the OT/MMG worked perfectly well, other than i rolled a 1 in the 2nd turn and the Support trollied off to another section of the front. It suppressed the Brigaders MMG that had set up on the Church roof until i could bring the fire-power of the sections to bear.
My point was that I was sweating in the 2nd game as i didn't have anything that could affect the BA-5 and T26. Or so i thought at the time. The LMG can actually force Armoured Cars to retreat back to cover. I'd have to check whether that applies to the Tank too.
[EDIT: LMG/MMgs, that are not Pinned or Broken and at Close Range may target the vision ports etc of Armoured Vehicles and attempt to force them back [9.3.3]]
