- TURN 2: Enter on Board 1, hex GG6:
3xT34.
SPECIAL SCENARIO RULES:
- D2.1: All vehicle that enter the board on the same
hex must do so sequentially, with the second vehicle playing one additional
MP to enter, the third paying two additional MPs, etc. Note: Entrance via
a road hex would then expend MPs of 1/2, 1 1/2, 2 1/2, etc.
- D2.2: A captured support weapon (SW) has its Breakdown
Number decreased by 2 due to lack of familiarity with the weapon and difficulty
of ammunition re supply. A captured SW which breaks down cannot be repaired
unless recaptured by the player of the same nationality.
- D2.3: All attack by
capture ordnance must add +2 DRM to al To Hit die rolls. Attacks by captured
support weapons which do not utilize a To Hit table have their firepower factors
halved when rolling for effect on the IFT.
- D2.4: German 838s may place a total of six smoke
counters during the game.
- D2.5: SIDE SELECTION PROCEDURE: Each player
takes one marker of either nationality and simultaneously reveals their choice
of side. If opposing sides are selected, those sides are assigned. If the
same side is chosen, the players bid for side with the lower rated (seed)
player bidding first. Bids may start at '0' and progress in whole numbers
only. The bid is the numbers of dominant AT START squads to be added to the
opposing side. The bid continues until one player accepts the opposing side
whose force is augmented with that bid.
