support shooting + forest and alike

Post by bahdahbum »

Sorry if it has already been asked but I cannot find any topic with the answer .

What about support shooting if the unit ( let's say a 2 rank LB unit ) is in a terrain that prohibits the second rank to shoot . I know support shooting is a bit different than just shooting ...but is there a support shooting by a second or 3rd bow rank in a forest, plantation ....

It is answered in the FAQs:
viii) SUPPORT SHOOTING AT IMPACT
Can you support shoot if you could not normally shoot from a 2nd rank due to terrain?
No. If terrain (such as Forest) stops you from using the 2nd rank in normal shooting, equally it stops you having the
benefit of these dice at impact.
