You first determine if your vehicle was hit by an AT mine. The more mine factors in the hex, the better the chance. If it was hit by a mine, you roll once on the 36+ column.28.52 Each A-T Mine attacks on the 36+ column of the IFT. my question is each A-T Mine field or mine factor?
Unlike SL it really doesn't matter as the strength of the minefield is not reduced by a successful/unsuccessful attack; it is simply the strength of the A-T minefield. {See A_T_Great's reply}28.52 Each A-T Mine attacks on the 36+ column of the IFT. my question is each A-T Mine field or mine factor?
You make one dr against the AT mine factors to determine if an attack is made at all, then one DR on the 36+ column. For example if you have four AT mine factors in a hex and a vehicle enters the hex, you make one (only) dr. If the dr is ≤ 4, you make one (only) DR on the 36+ column. If the dr is ≥ 5, no attack is made. You don't make multiple drs or DRs for a single act of entry/exit.28.52 Each A-T Mine attacks on the 36+ column of the IFT. my question is each A-T Mine field or mine factor?
The AT Mines are referred to as "Mines" collectively, not minefields unlike the A-P section. In the A-T Mines rules the individual elements are referred to as "factors," so I think if it meant that each element attacked it would have to say "Each A-T Mine factor attacks...". It might be less confusing if the rules used "AT Minefields" instead of "AT Mines" when speaking of the collective entity, but I don't see anywhere that "A-T Minefields" is used. It's always "A-P minefields" but "A-T Mines." I understand why you find this confusing, but I think the rules are consistent in their usage of the terms, and that "Each A-T Mine attacks..." is correct within the context of those rules.Understood and thanks, the rule to be clear then should say Each A-T Minefield attacks...
