(Answered) Infantry Lack a Piloting Skill
« on: 09 January 2018, 08:55:58 »
Tactical Operations pg 198 - Fatigue section : "A unit's ability to ignore fatigue is based on its rating (as determined by the Piloting Skill Rating)"
Campaign Operations pg 33 - Average Unit Rating section : "or Gunnery and Anti-’Mech Skills for infantry squads"

Most Infantry do not have an Anti-Mech skill. It is my understanding that Infantry lacking the skill should use 8 as the value.

This causes problems with the Fatigue Table on TO pg 198 as 8 is not even a value on the table. In Campaign Operations pg 33 this causes nearly all Infantry to be considered Green units thereby causing issues with Unit Rating.

What value should Infantry use if they do not have an anti-mech skill/ability?
