Q: Can a Solder perform a Close Assault while loaded on a Vehicle with Fighting Platform?
A: Yes. Close Assault can be used without dismounting, if the transport has Fighting Platform.

Coordinated Fire

This unit rolls one extra attack die while adjacent to a friendly Commander.

Q: The M1 Garand unit has the Coordinated Fire SA and the Polish officer unit has a Commander SA by the same name. The wording is different, but these SAs are named the same. Are these different because the Polish Officer's special ability is a Commander SA? Can these SAs stack?
A: A Commander SA is still a special ability, it's just a subset. That means these two don't stack. (Can't be combined) I suspect that's why they were given the same name even though they have different wording.
