[Matt W]

On assaults with AFVs, I think that they are appropriately vulnerable to close action and therefore M, M1 and M2 are all reasonable. It would vastly increase their effect on the battlefield to make them much more significant in an assault. If it's a vote I vote for keeping assault combat as it is with one exception.

If units(s) activate with a fire mission with the intent to assault a hex (noted at the time of activation) but other activities performed during the same activation (e.g. preparatory direct fire) vacates the hex, the assaulting units may still enter the now vacant hex, and that such entrance does not trigger opportunity fire as it is not "movement" but rather a fire action.
