Watchtower

Geoff: quick question on Watchtower:

I have a Marine squad in a jungle hex, an IJA squad two hexes away, with
Ichiki in an adjacent hex...can the IJA squad enter the Marines hex if
ordered to banzai with his two movement points?

Yes. It takes all of an infantry unit's remaining MP to enter a jungle hex.

Thanks, Geoff. I was interpreting the "all MP" on jungle to say hat you
had to be adjacent to a ungle hex to enter it. Now I'll go back and see
what Ichiki can do!

Geoff:

couple more WT questions.

1. Edson's glory. a nasty Ha-Go is two hexes in plain sight from my
105mm unit. Can the unit fire direct fire at the tank or does it always
fire indirect with a "to hit card draw? 

2. Same scenario: a dug in Marine unit takes one hit. the dug in negates
the step loss and I am assuming also negates the supression result? 

Thanks

john

The 105 CAN direct fire if it has not fired in the Indirect Fire phase.
(Each unit may fire only once per turn.) 

The Marines ignore the step loss but are still suppressed if the SAME
CARD also caused a suppression result.
