What happens when you have just one radioless AFV entering on turn 1? I cant find anything on the rules, but I remember some SSR that cope with that.

Remember that, once entered and barring any SSR to the contrary, the tank will need to take a TC to move in subsequent turns.I see. Thx Martin
Actually this rule (D14.212) is there to force a platoon that enters in different impulses to keep moving as a platoon, I'd say. D14.23 says explicitly that the NTC to start non-platoon movement only occurs for onboard AFV, so lone radioless AFVs can move freely on their entrance turn.Hi Juan...
Offboard AFV must use Platoon Movement "if possible"
I would assume that this would not apply if they were required to enter from non-adjacent hexes?A lone off board radioless AFV can enter freely, but if 2 or more AFVs enter on the same turn and only 1 is radioless, then on the turn that it enters it will need to use platoon movement with an AFV that has a radio.
Do you have a rules to quote to support this? It isn't what I understand from D14.212 and D14.23.A lone off board radioless AFV can enter freely, but if 2 or more AFVs enter on the same turn and only 1 is radioless, then on the turn that it enters it will need to use platoon movement with an AFV that has a radio.
Convinced you're overthinking this and tying yourself up in a knot.Do you have a rules to quote to support this? It isn't what I understand from D14.212 and D14.23.
D14.23 doesn't require a radioless AFV that starts its MPh offboard to make a movement TC; and D14.212 can be read to require a radioless AFV to use platoon movement if an adjacent AFV exists, but I don't see anything that would force the player to setup his AFV adjacent (thus allowing the lone radioless AFV to move without platoon movement, since no other vehicle is there to form a platoon), or even prevent initially adjacent radioless and radio-equipped AFV to enter together (the radio-equipped AFV can enter first, and then the other is unable to use platoon movement).
Note: I checked Klas' PerrySez collection, and there's one about D14.2 that does say two radioless AFV entering in the same turn have to set up as a platoon, so it looks like there is such a setup restriction. I still don't see how it follows from the rules - the setup is strictly before entrance, and I don't see how the setup is constrained.
