Special Abilities Errata & FAQ

Relocate 2

This unit has speed 2 during your assault phase.

Q: Can a unit with Relocate X move after it fires, or can it only do so if it has not fired?
A: The Relocate X special ability allows a unit to either move or fire in the Assault phase, but not both.

Indirect Fire

If a friendly Spotter is within eight hexes of an enemy Soldier and has line of sight to it, this unit’s attack against that Soldier ignores line of sight.

Q: Does Indirect Fire hit the front or rear defense when attacking a target? What if a spotter is looking at a target's rear, but the unit with Indirect Fire is in the front arc?
A: Whether you hit the front or rear of a target depends on the facing of the target to the unit with the Indirect Fire SA. A spotter doesn't change this. It only allows that unit to ignore line of sight.
