There are a lot of posts talking about how an AFV can freeze infantry, but does the reverse also apply?
The index confirms that an AFV is a unit:A7.212 TARGET SELECTION LIMITS: A unit does not have the freedom to attack units in other Locations while its own Location is occupied by a Known enemy unit (even if disrupted) unless the only known enemy unit in its Location is an unarmed/unarmored vehicle. Whenever a unit is eligible for TPBF vs Known enemy units, it can attack only those units.
So this does seem to say that a Tiger, manned by the cream of the German tank crews, cannot shoot at a swarm of Shermans, because there is a disrupted conscript half-squad trembling behind a shrub at the far side of its hex. This seems, um, wrong. The A7.212 example says that this is the case, but really? What's the motivation for this?Unit = Any game piece or counter with its own MF/MP allotment and normally capable of movement without being portaged
