HIP AT in underneath a trench counter...

[Chris Bryer]

When this is setup in a woods hex is the Entrenchment itself revealed when that hex is within LOS of an enemy unit or when the gun fires?

Thank you in advance!

The trench comes out, the Gun stays HIP until fired, barring SSR, is my understanding.

If non-PTO, when an enemy unit is within 16 hexes and has LOS to the "fortification" it is revealed as per A12.33. Gun is 'unhipped' if it fires (A12.34).

(Eww, sniped by Carl by seconds).

Despite losing HIP, the Gun retains Concealment despite firing, though, as it is in Concealment Terrain (Woods), unless the Colored TH die for the shot is 5 or 6.

The entrenchment is revealed as soon the enemy unit has LOS and is within 16 hexes. It will also be revealed when the gun loses its concealed/HIP status regardless of enemy LOS or if its protective TEM is claimed.

A 6 if the nearest enemy unit with LOS is more than sixteen hexes away.

Agreed
