A German HS is alone in a hex with an Abandoned British AFV. May he automatically eliminate the vehicle? Does it burn?
"11.52 CAPTURE OF VEHICLE IN CC: Infantry may not attempt to capture a manned AFV or a Motion/non-stopped vehicle (or its PRC), but may attempt to capture or eliminate an Abandoned AFV as per 21.2. An unarmed, stopped/non-Motion vehicle without Personnel Escort is captured instantly in any CCPh in which it is alone with opposing Infantry." [emphasis mine]
This would suggest that, yes, and it happens automatically. But, 21.2 makes no mention of 'elimination', just capture.
"21.2 VEHICLE: A vehicle can be captured only in the CCPh (11.52). An AFV can be captured only if Abandoned (D5.42). If there are no enemy Personnel in the Location with an Abandoned enemy AFV, it may be captured automatically by any Infantry unit in the same location at the end of a CCPh but Ambush is NA." [The rest of 21.2 is an "Otherwise...that speaks to what happens if there are enemy Personnel in the Location, and explains why there are CC DRM for "vs. Abandoned AFV" ]
What says the world?
