Hi
A Sniper question:
An OG hex is selected as the target hex/location for a Sniper attack. The location has two squads and the Sniper counter of that side.
Question:
Is the Sniper included in Random Selection (RS) or not, or can the Sniper only be attacked by selecting it, hence declining the RS among the two squads?
I guess there are to possible answers:
1) Random Selection among the two squads and Sniper
2) Either choose an attack on the Sniper or RS among the two squads
A14.2 (part of it)
Should the target Location be occupied by > one eligible (14.22) target, use Random Selection to determine the target(s) in that Location [EXC: prior to Random Selection, the Sniper may choose one of the following (if present in that Location) as its target: the enemy Sniper counter; a Vulnerable Inherent Crew; or an unarmored vehicle; if any eligible target is concealed, see 14.23].
A14.22
"NON-TARGETS","All units are eligible Sniper targets except AFV with no Vulnerable PRC, units in subterranean [EXC: Caves; G11.8] or Interior-Building Locations, prisoners, or hidden/friendly/Aerial units. Enemy PRC are Vulnerable to Sniper attack if they are CE and/or occupy a Partially Armored AFV or unarmored vehicle. An unarmored vehicle with no PRC (14.33) can be considered an ineligible target at the Option of the Sniper player.")
The emphasized text in bold is by me and what I think is important.
