Multiple Weapons - Stejones82 - 04-17-2014 So I was goofing around with ES "So This Is Hell" scenario. In hex (10,3) there are German flak weapons. "Flakvierling 20mm" which have a Lethality rating of 280. The unit counter shows 4 weapons and lists a crew of 3 (12). Does this mean there is one unit of a quad 20mm or 4 units of quad 20s? Is the lethality for this weapon actually 280 or 1120 (280x4) !!! Curious how multiples of weapons work.

RE: Multiple Weapons - Jeff Conner - 04-17-2014 Actually Steve, you are correct, it is four, four-barreled weapons. That is why it shows a crew of 12 instead of just three. Not sure what the designer was trying to accomplish there. The OOB file only shows one, so I am assuming that's what he intended. So to get back to your original question, yes the lethality would be multiplied times four. However, because the crew is one quarter of the required crew, you would be back to the original number. If you decided to move a squad to that hex, however and swapped weapons around you could man most of the Flak guns fully. Like I said, I don't think this was what the designer intended and it should probably be corrected. Jeff |
