Quite laconic indeed!
It's because of the tools that they carry to fix their vehicle clanking together. Dead giveaway.
The ones that magically appear on their bodies when an infantry crew is reduced to a vehicle crew?It's because of the tools that they carry to fix their vehicle clanking together. Dead giveaway.
No, that's because the infantry crew is bitching about not having the tools to fix the vehicle.The ones that magically appear on their bodies when an infantry crew is reduced to a vehicle crew?
(edit) I guess they do tell you sidenote their IDs... what a pain! But still looking for rules reason.
Infantry crews, 2-2-8s. I know, the precise wording gets tedious.
Could have been worded better.
Well, there is no evidence to support the claim that it is infantry-crews only, so if that's the intent, it should be errata at some point.
Japanese vehicle crews would only become stealthy once they become infantry, I do not agree that a Japanese vehicle would receive a stealthy DRM just because Japanese crews are stealthy as I believe the rule points to them as having to be considered infantry first. As always, I could be mistaken.
A vehicle crew is a vehicle crew whether inherent or dismounted as infantry. If one accepts that they are stealthy because they are crews it could lead to the interpretation that they are stealthy in or out of a vehicle. This leads me to think there may be more to the rule than 1st presents the reader. but I agree, as it's stated presently a vehicle crew as infantry is more than likely considered stealthy though I'm not sure that was the intent.
The rule says "Good Order Elite and 1st Line Japanese Infantry (including crews) are Stealthy..." so I don't think we need to worrying about crews in their vehicle.
