    Gaining and losing concealment/HIP at night

    I was just wondering if someone could confirm (or deny) my understanding of the difference in gaining and losing concealment at night vs. in daytime. Concealment loss: only if you spend MF in an illuminated location, or enter an enemy-occupied location in the MPh. Therefore, you never lose...

    Lax and Stealthy at night

    Rule E1.6, "LAX/NORMAL/STEALTHY: All units are classified as Lax, Stealthy, or Normal at night." Is this classification supposed to be entirely separate from the normal use of lax and stealthy, or does it supersede it? It seems logical that it would be separate, but then it is baffling that...

    ASL 161 Arctic Crossroads LV?

    This one uses a subset of the night rules but does not include E1.7, the LV hinderance. Is there errata somewhere (that I can't find) adding it? (Reality argument, but there was definitely an LV in the winter when I was in Fairbanks)

    Illuminating Round availability for OBA

    Question for the hive mind: Consider a Night scenario in which OBA is available. SSR says OBA may use HE and SMOKE. Does that mean Illuminating Rounds (IR) are NOT available? The specific reason I ask is for the KGP Stoumont CG. Both US and German artillery is specified as having HE and SMOKE...

    Night, Routing, Melee, and Close Combat

    G2.3 Jungle at night

    G2.3 says that there is no LOS between adjacent Dense Jungle hexes "except due to Illumination/Gunflash", but then it also says that "Neither starshells nor IR can Illuminate the non-Aerial portion of a jungle hex". So, what exactly can Illuminate a Dense Jungle hex strongly enough that there is...

    Accounting for time of year?

    Hello all Just a thought that occurred to me while playing Rzhev '42. I thought it curious that the times of daylight and darkness seemed to be pretty much exactly the same for November as in June, but this is in the northern part of European Russia. I researched the sunrise and sunset...

    FB CGII Night Assault set up question

    Hello, The Night Rules generally state that the cloaked Attacker enters from off board. In the case where you have units already on board and a Night Assault is planned, are the on board units allowed to use cloaking? Thanks! David
