Hey guys,
Just working out with a mate how much gun half tracks get with 3 stands (MG troops) mounted. We have it at 5 MG shots in the front arc. 3 from the hull MG, 1 from the AA MG which has a 360 arc and 1 from the escorts (which the passengers count as since there are more than 2 stands).
We're super green so I just wanted to check we were doing it right ha. Thanks.

I wish I had time for all the game systems I own, let alone want to own... |

German 1/2 tracks?
4 (3 from the hull MG one from the passenger fired AAMG). The passengers don't count as tank escorts.

Ah thanks. They're Panzer Lehr specifically, if that makes a difference?

Might want to double check that.....
Thought if a german halftrack had more than 1 team as a passenger it counted as tank escorts.
Dont have my rulebook on me at the moment but pretty sure it did which means 5 dice.

Under v3 rules, German halftracks are considered to have the Tank Escorts special rule if they're carrying two or more teams (p.243 in the mini rulebook).
So yes, the OP's numbers are correct.

Yup, you had it right. 5 shot halftracks are soooooo nice.

I should run Panzer Lehr and have my tank hunters firing from my tracks as tank escorts.

Panzerfaust team drive bys?
Isn't that a tad risky.
