[Rules] Bombardment Chart - Example

[Reconquista]

Where do you see "Both units would lose a step" in what I typed?
Read it again....

Turns out (from what I read thread herein) that the proscription to take the X on the AT gun (higher column) was lost from previous editions....
I agree that the most severe loss should be taken on the element which had the higher vulnerability....thus the AT...

BUT apparently that is a "House Rule" now in the current edition, and not RAW---But I agree it should be a rule.

Again--- One attack on two columns gets an X-X (21-30) results in ONE step loss in the hex....Again, I'd agree the most
vulnerable unit (30 column) would take the loss, and everyone else M2s....(ignoring transports details...) 
Better?

Pardon me, but is it really necessary for rules lawyers to rub other player's noses in your condescending rightness?
