In ASLRB 2nd Edition, it states in A7.9 "If a FG cowers, Random Selection is used to determine the unit(s) that becomes marked with a Prep or Final Fire marker". A couple questions:

-- does this apply for both FG (stacks) and multi-hex FG?

Is the following example correct:

-- 3 Russian Conscript units (in the same location) fire and cower during First Fire. Random Selection is used to determine which of the unit(s) will be marked with a First Fire marker and Final Fire marker.

-- If the above occured during Prep Fire, it would be unecessary to roll for Random Selction as all units, in this situation, would be marked with a Prep Fire maker.

-- Do both situations above hold true if the units made up a multi-hex FG?

This is new and not included in the ASLSK.

Thanks

Yes, both are FG.

Yes, one (unless an unlucky RS roll selects more than one) of them will be marked with a Final Fire counter, the other two with First Fire.

-- If the above occured during Prep Fire, it would be unecessary to roll for Random Selction as all units, in this situation, would be marked with a Prep Fire maker.
Correct. Note however that if one or more of the units had SW that were either not used in the attack, or used and retained ROF, then the RS roll is necessary, to see which unit that gets a Prep Fire on its SW as well.

-- Do both situations above hold true if the units made up a multi-hex FG?
Yes - no difference there.
