3.13 Reexamined

[plloyd1010]

The MG in Hex #0415 was not activated in the same atttack. (This resulted in an informational Moved/Fired nightmare. The mortar in the same hex activated, but the MG did not.) Since this scenario has only 61 counters, I was able to remember this.

Peter's note about no added combat modifiers to bombardment attacks was revelatory!

I did not say it was the same attack. Your description is a second activation and attack in the same activation sequence (box #2). The point is that there is no second activation after actions are being executed. One cannot declare an activation, resolve the activation , then declare another activation. What can be done is declaring the 2 activations, resolve one, then decide what to do with the second (box #3).

So far as the counters are concerned, those were the ones available. A 10-2-1 Luftwaffe colonel will not ne available until PoC is supported. Same for short 81mm mortars. I still say that John Stafford screwed up the HMG/MG/WPN counters.
