Re: Empacements - Grrrr

1. Emplacements - does an emplacement allow a broken crew to stay in an Open Hex rather than rout? +2 is pretty good cover.
Yes. Rule 3.6 in the ASLSK #3 rulebook states this correctly.
The Smarch wrote:
2. If a crew that was manning a Gun is in melee with an enemy unit, does the crew get the TEM for the emplacement if fired upon outside of the hex?
Yes. There's nothing in the rules that says a Melee cancels/negates the emplacement TEM or that a crew has to be in Good Order to claim the emplacement TEM.

3. If a gun uses its IFE and keeps its ROF, can it fire again using the TH chart?
Yes. I don't know of any rule that would prevent this.

4. Does a unit have to do anything to "capture" an enemy Gun? Can it eliminate it at any time?
Guns are Weapons, so Rule 4.0 covers this. Basically, Guns are treated the same as SW: you have to make a recovery dr to take possession of an abandoned enemy Gun, and once you possess the Gun you can voluntarily destroy it during the PFPh or the DFPh, but doing so counts as the use of a weapon for the possessing unit.

5. We assumed the Captured Use and Inappropriate Personnel (can't think of the correct term) penalties are cumulative -- +4 to hit and +4 to Breakdown. Correct?
Yes, although the B# would be *reduced* by 4.
So, if you have a pinned (+2), exhausted (+1 CX), Non-Qualified (+2) unit manning a captured (+2) Gun, they won't be able to hit the broadside of a barn (+2 TEM wood building): a total +9 TH DRM.
