Can you use Canister while in VBM?

I couldn't find anything in the rules and I also didn't know where the vertices would be. Thanks

In that case, you should be alright!!

I don't see why not....of course some hexes, depending on which vertex one chooses, might not be within the CA.

Assuming then I would go to the vertices as if I were in the hex I'm bypassing?

Yes...I don't see being in bypass changes that....the vertex will still be "two hexsides distant" from the hex the vehicle is in.

I think you would trace LOS to the vertices from the CAFP. IIRC, all the vertices must be in the TCA. Writing this without confirming, however.

Agree, I'd say/play that all three hexes must be withing the TCA - which would limit the choices to three vertices - instead of five.

Makes sense

I submitted a Q&A in May 2013 and am awaiting a response. I can't find the email but it included this diagram asking if these were v FWIWalid aiming points for canister for a vehicle in Bpass. FWiW

I recently had Perry say to me “Re-send a question that has not been answered within a year or so” (not sure how much time he actually stated). I would mention that the question has been sent earlier.

Yeah I think after 9 year that might have been overlooked.

I'm sure that's the case and we just played on. I guess the issue hasn't come up for me since 2013. I'm surprised I even remembered it considering I can't remember what day it is half the time.
