FAQSince Tom and I had a few questions come up during our game... Can I use a Movement Order in the turn I arrive from
Reserves? Specifically, can I use a Blitz Move order to move
onto the table and then move no further and shoot as if I
did not move?
Yes you can.As far as using AT weapons in assaults... How do my infantry kill tanks in assaults?
Infantry that hit a tank in an Assault may either use their
normal Anti-tank rating against a tank’s Side armour or Antitank
2 against its Top armour. Using weapons like the M72
LAW, RPG-7, and RPG-18 can be very effective against lighter
vehicles like the M113 or BMP, but have limited effect against
main battle tanks like the M1 Abrams or T-72. Against these
infantry in the open can only endure and hope the tanks break
off before the infantry’s own determination to counterattack fails.
Can my Guided anti-tank missiles fire in Defensive Fire?
No. Defensive Fire requires that you shoot at a target within
8”/20cm, while missiles can’t shoot at targets within 8”/20cm,
so you can’t do it.They didn't answer the question we had, just repeating the part from the rules. I think that since the guided AT missiles were left out of the explanation, they are hinting that guided weapons can't be used in assaults because of the minimum range.

That makes sense to me, as we discussed today, it also makes the milan teams not as good as I had hoped they were.

Yeah, infantry isn't quite as effective against tanks in assaults as in v3 FOW. The AT weapons are quite powerful, so have trouble hitting in assaults.
