If a vehicle in a squadron is immobilised then it is destroyed as the crew abandon it, but when does this take place.

Eg, if there are two vehicles and I obtain 2 damage results, in one round of shooting, and the first one immobilises the target vehicle, is it destroyed before I roll the result for the second? Or do I wait to see if I destroy the other one first?

Cheers

It is destroyed immediately. In fact, if you have a Squadron of 2, and get 2 Immobilized, both are destroyed, as they still count as a squadron. Same for Squadrons of any size.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284266/1411217.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284266/1411217.page GMT When does Immobilise = Destroyed

In the shooting phase, all shooting from each unit is done simultaneously, so if the two damage results were from the same unit then you would apply them both simultaneously. So if both were immobilized results against a squadron, you would destroy two vehicles because it explicitly states that a vehicle is destroyed if it is immobilized if was part of a squadron at the time it was shot at.

If on the other hand, the two results are from different units, when the second unit fires at the remaining vehicle, it will only have one vehicle left in the "Squadron" so it ceases to become a squadron, so it will only be immobilized.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284266/1411218.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284266/1411218.page GMT Re:When does Immobilise = Destroyed http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284266/1411300.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284266/1411300.page GMT Re:When does Immobilise = Destroyed

Sorry, incorrect. As per page 64 of the BRB:
If a squadron consists of a single vehicle when an enemy unit fires at it, it reverts to the normal rules for vehicle damage results.

A Squadron of 2 who is reduced to 1 at the Initiative 4 step, is still a squadron at the Initiative 1 step, because the enemy has not "fired on it" in-between.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284266/1411319.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284266/1411319.page GMT
