Half Tracks	Wed, 08 September 2010 01:52

The new half-track rules state that they are treated as armor for all purposes. It also states that they may remove wire. http://cdn1.daysofwonder.com/memoir44/en/img/mm_op4_halftrac k_en.pdf "May they enter wire; remove it and also battle on the same turn like armor?"

"May they enter wire; remove it and also battle on the same turn like armor?"

I would say yes too. Else that "treated like armor for all purposes" would cover very little.

I was sort of laughing about that

It is like armor except...

1 -- It can only move 2 and battle.

2 -- It only has a range of 2 hexes.

3 -- It only rolls 2 battle dice.

4 -- It cannot perform an Armor Overrun Attack.

So that would leave...

A -- It is hit like armor.

B -- It can be ordered by the Armor Assault card.

and I believe....

C -- Remove wire and battle on the same turn.

So that is 4 unlike armor and 2 (probably 3) like armor.

That is correct - it behaves like Armor for everything except what is written on the summary card. So it may remove wire and battle the same turn (but it must stop on the hex, of course). [Report message to a moderator]
