Platoon movement and Shocked crews.

[GVL]

A platoon of 3 radioless AFV's is moving. One of the AFV's is hit. The result is a Shock. What happens to this AFV and the other AFV's of the platoon?
I suppose the hit AFV must stop immediately. But must the other AFV's also stop immediately or can they still move some MP's?

I suppose the hit AFV must stop immediatly. But must the other AFV's also stop immediatly or can they still move some MP's?

From rule D14.22:
14.22 If an AFV is destroyed, Recalled, uses non-platoon movement (14.23) or become Immobile, it is no longer considered part of the platoon, and the remaining AFV continue to function as a platoon, ignoring the lost AFV for platoon functions, and (if necessary) immediately moving to close the range to each other by the end of the next Impulse.

And Shock = Immobile

What if you are down to the last AFV? Are you then required to make the NTC to move?

No, it can move freely for the remainder of that MPh.

D14.23 says "...but if at the start of its MPh such an onboard Mobile AFV is alone ... it must pass a NTC in order to move during that MPh"

Note "if at the start of its MPh". So if its not "at the start of its MPh", the rules don't call for this NTC.
