4th Edition Opportunity Fire

[waynebaumber]

Troops,

I have at last started reading the 4th edition rules, there appears to be a contradiction in the opportunity fire rules and a big change.
The contradiction is that under combat rules 7.44 it states "Units with direct fire values and AFV's with Armour Efficiency may conduct two opportunity fires each turn in two different enemy activation's"
Later on in the opportunity fire rules it says you have to wait for a unit to move to another hex before firing a second time.

I take it means you can do both ie either fire twice at the same unit when moving or fire once at 1 unit and then wait for a second unit and fire for the second time.

I also note that units can now fire with DF one opportunity fire and then AT with the next or vice versa. Is this a change from 3rd Edition.
