Hi evereyone,

My query is: Suppose an infantry squad is attacking an enemy vehicle which is on an adjecant hex ; IN ORDER TO SCORE A SUCCESS ON A DICE DOES THE INFANTRY HAVE TO ROLL 4,5,6 (BY VIRTUE OF A CLOSE COMBAT AGAINST AN ADJECANT HEX) , OR DOES IT HAVE TO SCORE 5,6 (BY VIRTUE OF ATTACKING A VEHICLE IN THE NORMAL RANGE, WHICH IS 1 FOR INFANTRY ( =ADJECANT HEX) )?

Infantry normaly only use normal range vs. vehicles when shooting downhill at two hex range.

P.22, "If the target unit is in adjacent hex, the attack is considered to be at close range." Note the use of the word 'considered', which has the effect of overriding reasoning based on other criteria.
