weather questions (and others)
« Thread Started on Oct 31, 2009, 12:22pm »
For fog, night, and snow/ sand storm it says shooting at long range suffers a -1 penalty. This is in addition to the usual -1 for firing at long range, correct? It also says for night that some advanced optics ignore the effects. The Vampyr scope is designed to work at night and there is mention of that in the flavor text but nothing concrete. Should we ignore night effects with it or not due to issues of simplicity?

Also, the under the fluff of the German chaplain, it says he refuses to fight along side the SS but he is part of the Wehrmacht and so could technical be allied with them. So could he technical be in the same detachment (even though it wouldn't be a very fluffy list?)

And one last question. The Pathfinders are under the OORD section but under the factions section they are listed as US Army, which one is it?

You would ignore Night but not any weather effects.

He will NOT work with the SS at all.

They should be listed for BOTH US Army and OORD.
