A12.34, B9.324, & C11.3
HIP status at setup requires Emplacement (A12.34). Per B9.324, a HIP Gun may voluntarily give up WA and remain hidden (B9.234). Per C11.3, a Gun which voluntarily forfeits WA loses "Emplacement" To Hit DRM. Is "Emplacement To Hit DRM" the same as "Emplacement"?
A. Essentially.
If a unit gives up the To Hit DRM is it still otherwise emplaced?
A. No.
Is Emplacement required to remain HIP or is it only a requirement to set up HIP?
A. No (Yes).
Lastly, give the provisions of B9.234's "Remain Hidden", does this mean a gun in otherwise non-concealment terrain remain Hidden or is it placed on the board Concealed like any other Hidden Gun which comes into LOS? [[For this last question, think bocage in particular which can turn otherwise non-Concealment terrain into out of LOS Concealment terrain.]]
A. A Gun that drops WA is no longer “behind bocage” for the purposes of being in Concealment Terrain. And if it is in non-Concealment Terrain and not Emplaced, it will become unconcealed.
