Case J2

[nekengren2]

Should be simple but I can't figure it out. DFF versus an in-motion tank which starts in LOS. Will case J2 apply?

Only the basic J. +2 modifier.

Correct per C6.15 ...A target that begins its MPh (or a portion thereof while subject to neither Case J1 nor J2) in the firer's LOS is unaffected by these Cases until it is out of that LOS after entering a new Location/vertex; ...

thanks. i'm blind. been through all that but missed exactly what you posted. this is totally clear.

i think all this stuff is finally starting to sink in. I wrote MANY tech documents in my career and I'm amazed at this spaghetti-bowl ASL stuff. Such a great game that kicks people in the nuts trying to learn it.

Fellow technical writer here. Am simultaneously awed and horrified at the rules. Mainly awed, though ;-)
