Playing J169, in which an SSR states that 4 of the attacking Russian squads MUST enter as riders. As they are not infantry, they cannot be cloaked on entry. The Russian gets 10 non-rider squads, and the four riders. E1.41 states that only infantry may start as cloaking counters. E1.411 states that 1 cloaking counter is received per squad-equivalent in the attacker OB.
Does the Russian get 14 cloaking counters or 10? There are 14 squads in the OB, but only 10 of them are Infantry, per se. But E1.411 does not specify "Infantry" squad-equivalents, so...
Another night question. Cloaked counters must dm SW if possible. Does assembling a SW cause loss of cloaking? In NVR? Out of NVR? I would argue that it does not out of NVR, as no gunflash is placed (E1.89), and it is out of LOS, but loss in NVR is a bit trickier depending on how one parses E1.3.
Basically, are E1.31 and E1.8-.89 exclusionary? Are these the ONLY ways in which one may lose concealment at night, or are they modifications to the daytime rules, and therefore conducting "any other action" in LOS per the concealment loss/gain table note C loses cloaking/concealment?
Interested to hear what people think.
