A3.33 say in part - [EXC: a mortar also hits all target-hex units that are out of its firer's (Spotter's, if one is being used; 9.3) LOS if that shot hit the non-hidden enemy target that currently was the hardest for it to hit (i.e., that received the highest net TH DRM for that shot)].
During WO one of my opponents claimed they could fire at my concealed, out of LOS units in a gully. I quickly read this and agreed, but then it was around 1am. I am looking at this now and I don't think that is correct. There were no non-hidden enemy units in LOS in the hex. SImply firing at a gully as ranging fire (so to speak) is all well and good in reality, but in ASL it is pretty effective given you know exactly what hex the guys are in. This would mean that 120mm mortar could fire at the 2nd level of a building (with no units in LOS) just to hit the guys in the ground level that the game allows him to know are there.
Is this correct? Was I sharked? They took 2 critical hits during their trip down the gully, one of which KIAd a squad.
It doesn't sys "hypothetical unit", which is used in some places of the rulebook. DOn't know, but searched the :hail: Perry sez and found nothing. Any opinions on this?
