(Answered) Elementals and Leg attacks
« on: 16 July 2022, 02:11:18 »
Ok, question for Elementals wanting to conduct a Leg Attack.

PG 220 total warfare
Infantry units that begin a weapon attack phase in the same hex and at the same elevation as the legs of an enemy mech may choose to attack the mechs legs instead of making a standard weapon attack.


Uh... how am I suppose to put my elemental model in the same hex?  Just bojangle it onto the mechs head and hope its square enough not to fall off?

I guess this means I am not in an adjacent hex attacking into this hex, but actually standing in the hex with the mech itself which ignores normal stacking rules.

Sure, or push the Mech aside a little so both are overlapping the hex.

No, stacking rules are that 2 friendly, and 2 enemy units can be in the same hex, provided that only 1 of those 4 is a 'Mech.
The solution is just ignore Paul.
