Re: Chain of Command rules question


 

Ah, I see what you mean, now, after checking the rules...

"If four or more 6¡¯s are rolled when rolling to hit?the target, the structure will begin to collapse. Troops in a collapsing building will roll 1D6 for?each man inside the structure, losing one man to falling rubble for every 5 or 6 rolled. Any?survivors will then be placed immediately outside any door of the building of their opponent¡¯s choosing."

Obviously he chose an exposed door :D

I'd say that it could be cheesy if they run back through the building, otoh if the are really really exposed, they may take their chances with that. But in that case, I'd say they would have to roll for casualties due to falling rubble, once for every phase they are inside or immediately adjacent to it. And add a chance of the building actually collapsing and all becoming casualties.

But to be honest, the?rules clearly suggest they can't go back in - you MUST evacuate already once the building becomes unstable, and even if not stated in the same words, it is at least implied in the rules on collapsing buildings.?

IIRC, without the rules in front of me, if they are still in the building when it collapses at turn end, they have to escape any way they can. You dice to see which way they go in their haste, and out the front door is one option.

I may miss something here that is scenario specific, but why are they forced to leave the building through the front door, and not other ways where they are covered?

Hi John,

Thanks for the clarification.?

I agree with points 1 and 2 but on point 3 could it not be argued that the paras have run out of the building because they thought it was about to collapse but on seeing that it hasn't they run back through it again taking the risk that it could still collapse on them?

1. Since there were 3 casualties you would roll a d6, on a 1-3 the leader takes one of the hits and you roll to see what happens to him.
2. He can move up to 18 inches but must at least 2 inches form the enemy
3.There isn't any rule I can find against it but playing by the spirit of the rules I wouldn't?do it. Having just run out of an unstable building it seems to me unlikely?
that they run right back into it.

Hi all,

I am currently playing Scenario 4 "Delaying Action at the Chateau" fro Kampfgruppe von Luck as the Paras defending the Chateau.

My dastardly German opponent has brought on a Lorraine Schelper which has fired at the Chateau causing it to be unstable and then played a coc dice to end the turn and force my paras to leave the building out of the front door with 2 killed by falling rubble.

I now have 3 questions:

1. Are leaders treated in the normal way when there are casualties from rubble or do you dice for them individually?

2. There is a sniper on the roof - what happens to him?

3. As the paras are now outside in the open can they run back and through the unstable building or do they have to run around it to try and find some cover?

Thanks in advance
