I'm transitioning from SK to full ASL, and I'm trying to understand concealment. I had a couple of very basic questions:
1) Cases B and D of the concealment loss/gain table starts with "If it/its PRC/its manning infantry...." and goes on to list actions that will cause loss of concealment. I understand that "PRC" is passengers, riders, and crew, but I'm little confused about "manning infantry," specifically the "manning" part. Does this only apply to infantry manning something, such as a gun? I couldn't find this term in the index, and looking at the second example in section 12.14, case B is cited twice as applying to a normal Russian squad. If that's the case, then why is the term "manning" included in cases B and D?
2) When is the generic moral level of 7 on ? counters used? Is it only used in the case in the first paragraph of section 12.14, in the sentence that says "A dummy stack out of the LOS of all enemy ground units uses a moral level of 7 when attacked, or when taking a PAATC, or a bombardment MC"? And why, two sentences later, can the owner decide to take more than one MC DR? Wouldn't he normally make a DR for each counter in the stack? Is the idea that there might be a dummy SW in the stack that he does not require an MC?
Thanks in advance.
