To shoot,
See if your in range (this is the weapons range+ units accuracy)
Role to hit (7-accuracy skill. Example: accuracy skill=3, 7-3=4 so 4+ on the role of a d6)
Then take armour test
If passed wound on the chart above (this is using the power of the gun not the unit)
If successful target loses 1 wound.
__________________________________________________________________________________

To assault
The unit most have made a charge move in the second movement phase into base combat with an enemy unit
Role to hit (this is rolled on the table above but t/w are replaced by 6+ and auto is replaced by 2+)
If the defending unit is hit it roles for its armour test
If the armour test is failed role on the to wound table with the defenders resilience and the attackers power (the power of the unit not its weapons).
For panic tests you take two dice and role them if they add up to higher than your leader ship then your unit panics and from now on mat in the two movement phases only make panic moves.
This test is taken when half of a units total wounds are removed in a single turn. The unit will “rally” when it comes into contact with a friendly unit that is not in a panic.
