Hi there.
I have just bought and played this game. After playing it through once I have a question if anyone would like to answer.
What are the rules for an infantry unit firing into a hex that contains multiple infantry units? should the Attacker choose one unit only to attack or is it like an area attack with all units in the target hex having to "save"for damage?
Sorry if this sounds like a simple thing but I can't seem to find the rules clarification anywhere...
Thanks in advance

You have to choose a unit as target.
Only area attacks, such as mortars or artillery cards, attack all units in a hex.

On p.22 under Combat: Targeting Infantry or Vehicles, 3rd paragraph, "In TOI, an attack targets a single squad or vehicle. If a hex contains multiple squads or vehicles, the firing player must indicate which exact squad or vehicle within the hex is to be the target of the attack."
Thank you for that reference. I totally missed it in reading.
Looks like we were doing the right thing, just something one of my players brought up.
Anyways... loving the game and looking forward now to painting the mini's and collecting the expansion packs.
