Open Back SA

Text of the "Open Back" SA:
Quote:
Enemy units can use their anti-Soldier attack values when attacking this unit from behind.

Question:  how many hits do you need to destroy a unit with "Open Back" when you're attacking it from behind?  Two hits, like it's a soldier (i.e., you're attacking the crew directly when attacking the open backed unit from behind), or three hits, like it's a vehicle (are you really attacking the vehicle itself when using anti-soldier values)?

Good question Amandil, i believe it is three hits like a vehicle as you are using the vehicles stats to judge the hits by.

Well, in that case, tonight I was robbed! Very Happy

Well, he was bound to drop that paratrooper there eventually.  Serves me right!

(I wonder if it would be a useful paratrooper deterrent to leave 5 Italian Conscripts spaced two hexes apart to the rear of this Semovente 90?  Ten points keeps the paras away!?! Smile)

Raevski's right--you use the AI values, but the armor/hit system remains the same. Well, a paratrooper vs. a Semovente is bad, but not as annoying as when my brother used his Spitfire Ace against my Ho-Ni... Evil or Very Mad
