Special Abilities Errata & FAQ

Close Assault 7

This unit has an attack value of 7 against Vehicles in its hex. This attack ignores cover.

Q: Can a Solder perform a Close Assault while loaded on a Vehicle with Fighting Platform?
A: Yes. Close Assault can be used without dismounting, if the transport has Fighting Platform.

Improved Accuracy

Friendly Soldiers adjacent to this unit have a medium range of 2–6 hexes.

Q: Does this SA negate the Limited Range 2 special ability of units like the PPSh-41 SMG?
A: Limited Range 2 doesn't reduce the unit's medium range to 2 hexes. It states, "This unit can attack Soldiers only at ranges of 2 or less." So the Eagle-Eyed NCO extends the PPSh-41's medium range to 6 hexes, but the PPSh-41 still can't attack anything further than two hexes away. Other units that are allowed to use their full medium range can take advantage of Improved Accuracy.
