So I had a question which Arlith asked that I post on the Forums here.
If Arlith asked me to do so it must be a good question for the rules.
So my question is, the oncoming battlefield is left in ruins from the departure of my enemies, but I suspect booby traps like mines and HIDDEN UNITS.
Apparently I dont see them unless I enter their hex or enter the hex next to this so called hidden unit. My BAP is also unable to detect hidden infantry units.
So in my predicament I choose to march my forces through the tattered battlefield and fire my weapons at every hex that could possibly contain a HIDDEN unit in a manner with which to "clear" the hex.
If I fire a weapon(s) at a hidden unit in the hex, a hidden unit which I do not know is there, does it actually survive and take no damage? ...because it is a hidden unit that has neither moved nor fired nor had a unit move into its hex or into the hex next to the hidden unit.
Or does it take full damage from my efforts to clear the hex.
If you say that the hidden unit is INVULNERABLE then I ask you, what if I had dive bombed or cluster bombed the hex where the HIDDEN unit resided, would it take damage then?
Obviously there may be a problem with the current UNCLEAR rules. imho of course.
