Tank rules

[GJD]

Tanks are proving to be very useful at dislodging infantry behind cover. The extra oomph of the main gun can just punch straight through any intervening terrain (PLA dug in - to hit 6+ (which is effectivly a kill as they have no armour), Challenger 2 main gun d10+2 - nice), and the the extra dice help to clean out the room if there is no extra cover between the now-a-pink-mist-target and his closest friends... Killed me two PLA fireteams with two shots (in subsequent turns) this way.

Of course, the preponderance of PLA rocket launchers did provide a few worrying moments. Urban terrain does allow for troops to get into elevated positions, which can negate some of that lovely cover you're in - I lost my Challenger 2 to a rocket more or less fired straight down onto the turret deck from a nearby tower.

As Dorward's mate Jim said in our game:

"Let's park the 99 in that suspiciously tank shaped space of cover :lol: "

It was a good plan. Not entirely successful, but a good'un none the less.

Yeah, that was the tank we lost wasn't it. But a Challenger in the same situation can't be killed outright.

The best line of the game:

Me & Jim : "We got your tank, haha!"
Dorward & Pete : "We got your tank first!"
Me & Jim : "Yeah but we still have a tank left, "

Very reminiscent of Red Dwarf (But I lied twice!)
