I made several errors as umpire today, both of which were in Close Combat resolutions.
A. First there is no crew survival for a dead tank in Close Combat. At least that is what I remembered after the fact. I am not sure but if the Stuart tank had been immobilized instead of destroyed, would the crew, if it had failed its morale check, have bailed out into Close Combat with the attacking enemy infantry unit? Would it have gone into Melle? Or straight into Close Combat? I think the former.
B. A Soviet SMG 227 half squad was in Close Combat with a Rumanian 7-0 and a 247. The Soviet 1 to 2 attack yielded a 4 result, which is the exact number to kill. I think that instead of killing both units, I should have called for a tie die between the leader and the 247 half squad. If the leader had lost the tie die and been selected, would he be wounded and a wound severity check be done? I think that yes to the tie die roll and the would severity check.
