Protection from Vehicles Question

[cazart!]

I opened the Parameter Data file in RV and found the Infantry Protection value is set to 4 (which I presume is relatively consistent across titles and scenarios). I interpret that to mean all non-wrecked vehicles provide infantry with a protection value of 4, regardless of the type of vehicle. In other words, an M-1 provides the same protection as a basic convoy truck ... except that you are less likely to find yourself next to a wrecked vehicle. :)

That is correct. Though you already get the IPV, so you are doubling your IPV to 8 if you are in hex with a vehicle. A soft skinned one is likely to be a wreck shortly as pointed out.
