Just read the playsheet. Snipers always count as being in cover unless they move and the targets don't get saves. Mr Koetze likes this.Image

Can I suggest a slight modification to the Chopper rules, allowing them to be armed with a side gunner HMG, forward firing HMG or Rocket launcher?
They would count as a softskin vehicle moving at 40cm regardless of terrain. Side gunner HMGs could fire if the chopper moved a half move or less other weapons only if stationery. Can be shot at if landed, dropping off troops or shooting but not if flying high.
(I would consider allowing an overflight attack for side mounted HMGs too, targets could return fire, but that might be a step too far :) )

Nooooo! Purely because I haven't painted my door gunners, M60's and rocket tubes. :)

Did someone mention native herbs? I can supply no end of soft chewy sheep smelling truffles, if desired.

I've only got the one so it wouldn't be overkill. :evilgrin:

That'd be Norm, are there any side effects we should watch out for?

Peeler will be weedeating Gaynor’s bush to provide these hallucinogenics. You can draw your own conclusions...

I'd need a stiff wire brush for that.

"Ghat Fooked", means one thing in Sub Saharan Africa and something quite different in North Yorkshire.

Following a last minute request for terrain from Whisky I've managed to bodge together a radar station. Couldn't find the proper array so I bodged one together from an old card sci fi kit and some Renedra bases.
