MG angle of attack


Recommended Posts

BTS,

Does the angle of attack (Enfilade etc) for a MG shooting at infantry targets provide a greater chance to hit and/or morale impact?

It seems on first inspection that the fire value is more closely linked to range, but this would surely be modified by angle?

ps: I did read the thread on grazing fire and note that this will have an impact where multiple sections are assaulting in line.

Thanks,

Bruce

Yes (to morale, not hits, but the effect can be significant). This goes for all small-arms fire. It's always good to shoot at the flanks.

Steve just a quick question. Is the morale effect from firing on a flank or rear as it pertains to unit facing or being fired at in the same turn from multiple facings (ala old ASL encircling fire?) Or is that a seperate bird?
