Infantry, in TW, take half damage while in cover. For AS conversion, it’s assumed infantry are in cover of some kind. Thus they divide their “armor” by 15 instead of 30 like every other unit. But mechanized infantry can’t take cover, so they have to divide by 30 like other units.
I think there is an error then in the stats for those Field Gun infantry.
That unit per the TRO is "Motorized" not "Mechanized"
So that would fall under the same rules for Foot/Jump platoons in regards to Armor.
At least I think that is how that works.
If it was Mechanized then it would weigh a lot more than 43 tons between the LACs, Ammo, & 30 Troopers.
Also, technically, shouldn't it be just 42.5 tons for the extra 2 guys?
That is what the TRO states, or is CARgo not done in 1/2 ton slots in the AS conversion?
