[Rules] 4th Edition rules are up

Hmmm, I don't picture it as infiltration. I think the armor rolls in firing as they go and keeps going. The -1 is because they don't stop to fight it out so less time is actually spent 'in hex' shooting. It's actually a 'power' move vs a sneaky one. "We're going though your space and there is nothing you can do about it!".

At least that's how it works in my head.

That's it. Whether you call it a "power" move or infiltration it is the same thing, the tanks rolling through.

Vince has the solution, defense in depth and positioning those AT guns becomes a little more challenging and the infantry will not be able to slow a tank advance by itself. Also, the tanks are still vulnerable after they have assaulted the infantry as they must stop right after the overrun. If the infantry is still in good order, I can see a quick assault to tie up the tank. This did work in the small play test that I did, interested to see more with it.

Ahhh, the units can keep moving after the attack.

" If it suffers any other result it moves into the designated exit hex and, if it still has remaining MPs, may continue moving normally."

On a bigger battle with armor and on-board art it may be prudent to give the art some platoons of inf for security.

I think you will find it tough for the tanks to come out of the overrun unscathed by the defenders, if they are in good order. Particularly if first fire is acceptable for the defenders that are dug in. Point being, there will be some interesting defenses that come out of this one.

BTW - I see that legal hexes was put in just in a different spot from the original.
