Town Fighting Rules

v1.1.1 - 21/2/12 - clarified "battalion gun" ROF

This set of rules is a less fiddly alternative to the BUA rules in CDTOB. They are intended to represent dense urban areas

A town is considered one homogenous built up area

Roads are considered part of the BUA and only aid movement, they do not count as open space.

LOS is 2" within the town, including down the roads

Anywhere in the town personnel stands, excepting those manning towed guns, are considered in cover (+3 or +2 depending on the types of structures). This includes troops on the roads. Vehicles and towed guns are not considered in cover (they have to remain on the streets).

Movement, except along the marked roads, is halved for all stands

All vehicle weapons and towed guns have a ROF of 0 so may only fire in opportunity fire. The exception are H class weapons which may also fire in prep fire but with an HE factor of 0. Note "battalion guns" also have a ROF of 0 which increases to 1 in the opportunity fire phase

Only mortars may fire IDF out of the town
