Range Rules for Coordinated Bombardement

By d35t, in Rules

Hi,

in our game yesterday we had a intensive discussion about the range rules for Leias Command Card.

The Card States a Range from 4 to unlimited. LOS is true for all 3 units.

Can Leia Hit:

  1. the red Unit (Stormtrooper with one mini within Range 3)?
  2. the brown unit (Darth Vader half on the Range 3 line)?
  3. the green unit (Stormtrooper, one mini < 4, one exact range 4, the others > 4)?

Measuring range comes from the unit leader (which in a 1 mini unit is that mini) but it is measured to the closest mini in another unit. This is detailed in the Attack Action section.

The rest is detailed in the Range section.

For the Red Unit , its closest model is within the range 3 band. So it is within range 3.

For the Brown Unit , (apparently there's no brown in the palette) if the range ruler hits its base it is at range 3.

For the Green Unit , the same as the Red applies, so within range 4.

So for the purposes of range 4 you would only be able to hit the Green Unit .

Ok, thanks for the clarification.

Seems strange that the red unit is save as soon as only one mini is under range 3, but we will go on with this rule...

Yea, I hear you, but on the flip side you can measure at any time so that allows you to better position yourself where the desired units are at the desired range.
