Q: Can a Panzer Grenadier load onto a vehicle with transport ability, move within that vehicle to a hex already containing an Oberleutnant, unload using its' Mechanized Tactics SA and then be included in an Angriff attack against an adjacent enemy unit in that turn's assault phase?
A: Yes. A Panzer Grenadier can board a transport in the Movement phase and then ride to a hex that's either adjacent to an Oberleutnant or that an Oberleutnant subsequently moves adjacent to. At the end of the Movement phase, the Panzer Grenadier dismounts for free. In the Assault phase, the Oberleutnant can use Angriff to let the Panzer Grenadier enter an enemy hex and attack. The Oberleutnant doesn't even need to be adjacent to the Panzer Grenadier at the beginning of the Assault phase. It could move adjacent in the Assault phase. As long as it's adjacent when the Panzer Grenadier takes its turn, Angriff can apply. But remember, no unit can dismount during the Assault phase under any circumstances.

Close Assault 8

This unit has an attack value of 8 against Vehicles in its hex. This attack ignores cover.

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.
