Howdy guys.
Came across this in my playthrough of CG IV VotG, where a Russian 228 and a 45L AT gun PANIC during the Russian PFPh. There are two locations adjacent with GE troops, and I'm unsure how to play this. According to S6.2112 infantry must use FPF, the other option is an armed vehicle (NA obviously), but there is no mention of a GUN. Is this a deliberate omission (i.e. the GUN crew fires on the IFT using inherrent firepower) or an oversight (i.e. the gun should fire Intensive Fire). I opted to go with firing their inherent firepower at the Germans.
Do you think this is the correct reading of the rules?
EDIT
I think I may have misplayed this action, because the SASL rules for PANIC says nothing about FPF fire during a PFPh, just the DFPh as defensive fire. Maybe the GUN (and crew) should not have fired at all? It is kind of moot in this case anyways, because during the GE DFPh, an adjacent FT attack killed the units and the GUN in that hex. Again, your thoughts on this please.
