Minefields - roll 4 dice for 3 figures?

By Nikoda, in Tide of Iron

Hi,

I'll have to explain the TOI rules soon and I was wondering if everybody understands the minefield rules as followes:

For each and every unit entering a minefied you have to role 4 dice (unless engineers of course) hitting with 4, 5 and 6 before becoming fatigued no matter how "complete" a squad is.

So if I enter with only one figure left this would be suicide whereas entering with four figures it might work.

Wouldn't I adjust the number of dice accordingly?

Then how about vehicles?

Or would that be a "house rule" only?

Thx

What does 'adjust accordingly' mean?

Vehicles and squads are both units.

You're right it would near near suicide to do it with anything less than a full squad. Since the minefield doesn't just go away after it blows stuff up, I'd call it near suicide to move anything into a minefield hex except for an engineering squad.
