CC rules are similar under 3.8The SK rules are Silent.
And the notes are exactly the same in SK
I'm sure the understanding of the CMG in SK is similar. There are no HD rules and so that isn't a specific issue. If anyone thought this would be a Turreted vehicle and calls themselves a WWII aficionado...They need another hobby.
Once again ASL terminology bounces up against military (and commonly used) terminology. In military common use a CMG (co-axial machine gun) is one that is co-axially mounted with the main armament, usually a fixed position on the same trunnion of the MA mount. In this configuration it would necessarily have to fire through the same CA as the MA. However in ASL terminology it can represent several different configurations and may indeed cover separate turrets in the hull or independent swivel capabilities that would allow the MG to fire at targets outside the MA's CA. In as much as I have run across several players (more than likely Civies & REMFs) that continue to call almost all fully tracked AFVs tanks, a little redundancy is not out of the question. Stewart should remember that a lot of people that play this game are gamers first and have varied interests in the history or technical aspects of the equipment.CC rules are similar under 3.8
A vehicle may attack Infantry in CC with its AAMG (if the vehicle is CE), its CMG (unless that CMG may fire through the VCA only), a RMG, close defense weapons, and/or the IFE FP of a turreted MA ≤ 15mm
Do they even use the word "REMF" anymore? I have heard nothing but "FOBbit's" for 10 years or so.Once again ASL terminology bounces up against military (and commonly used) terminology.

Well I've been retired for just over 10 years now and I'm Old School, LIFER (Low Intelligence Fart Enjoying Retirement). NOTE: When they finally broke my sword and kicked my old butt out using FOBbit to describe another soldier's status was an Article 15 offense.Do they even use the word "REMF" anymore?
