RE: 7.33 Combining Fire
By the way, activating a stack with includes an infantry leader and an AFW with a tank leader is the way to assault a new position with combined arms.
The infantry leader activates units in his own and/or adjacent hexes to fire, and the AFV with a tank leader activates itself and/or tanks in adjacent hexes to fire, and they all assault the new position. I will take a picture or two tonight and add to this post to make this clearer.
Stacking a leader on an AFV with infantry next to it can be useful, especially if the enemy has powerful Off-board artillery. The closed-top AFV is only vulnerable to "X" results on the Bombardment table and thus your opponent may decide it's better to bombard the infantry next to the AFV because of the better odds of getting a useful result..
