(Answered) Semi-Guided Indirect Fire and TAG
« on: 30 January 2011, 21:13:38 »
I was wondering if the modifiers for woods between a spotter and target should still apply to an indirect LRM launch if the target has been tagged, and the LRM's are semi-guided munitions. The woods have already applied their modifier to the TAG roll, and have been defeated at that point.

Greetings,

Page 142, Semi-Guided LRMs:

When firing indirectly, also ignore indirect fire and spotter movement modifiers.

So, yes, you ignore the terrain modifiers as you already paid for them with the TAG.

Best,

This should probably be declared errata then, as intervening woods aren't what most people would think of as "spotter movement modifiers". Thanks for the clarification, though.

Please make a note in errata.
