Greetings,
We're currently playing the 19AM CG Date of ABTF CGIII and have a question on when/how/if rooftop units lose concealment status.
Let me quote B23.82 first:
"23.82 Concealment: A Rooftop Location is Concealment Terrain only for setup purposes. A unit can remain hidden or concealed on a rooftop only if there are no Good Order enemy ground units within 16 hexes of it that are at the same or higher level with a LOS to it; these same restrictions apply to gaining "?" on a rooftop [EXC: the enemy units need only be unbroken (as opposed to Good Order) to prohibit such gain]. a unit on a rooftop is considered in the building for Searching / Mopping Up purposes."
OK, to me this seems to state that a rooftop unit never loses "?" status to a lower level enemy unless the rooftop unit isn't in Good Order. Is this correct? The rooftop unit won't lose "?" status even if it fires at a lower level (good order) enemy unit?
What if the rooftop unit is a 76mm MTR (which means it can't be Emplaced on the rooftop)?
What if the rooftop unit uses non-AM to enter other rooftop locations along the outside edges of a building?
Here's a cropped snapshot of the units in question in this CG:
Both the DD11.roof and FF11.roof units began this CG Date concealed, and both used prep fire this past PFPh. Do they retain "?" status even though the German units in JJ13 have LOS?
Thanks ahead of time for any help,
Ross
