• Collateral - The point value of these objectives increases when enemy fire affects the hex they are in. Collateral Objectives can be assaulted however without causing the point value to change. Collateral Objectives do not change side. If a Collateral Objective has a positive value, then that value is awarded to the owning side (regardless of who occupies it). If a Collateral Objective has a negative value and is occupied by the opposing side, then that value is a penalty to the owning side.

Basically they are objectives that are in place to keep the attacking side from firing indiscriminately. Think of them as places where civilians are known to be, or places where the ROE prohibit firing. If you fire into them, you lose points (or your opponent gains points). You can assault them without losing points, but you don't really get anything for them. Whoever 'owns' the objective gets the points.

Basically, stay away from them and I wouldn't fire into them unless you really have to.
