#1) I've always played that a Burning Wreck creates SMOKE in that hex/location and up to and including "Level 4" (assuming Ground Level Burning Wreck). However, playing today, the other player was reading B25.2 and we're trying to clarify the rule. It seems to imply that the level the Burning Wreck is in does not create SMOKE but the four levels above do, that is, from Level 1 to Level 5.
25.2 SMOKE: Any Burning Wreck or terrain Blaze is automatically shrouded by smoke up to four levels [EXC: none in Heavy Winds (25.63); two levels in a Mild Breeze (A24.4)] above the level of the fire in that hex, so no actual smoke counters need be placed on those fires. However, Wreck Blazes cause a +2 Hindrance DRM rather than the +3 Hindrance DRM of regular smoke.
Yes/no/maybe so?
#2) Does a Burning Wreck offer the +1 TEM for Infantry, just like a normal vehicle would? I presume yes.
Thanks!
