I discovered I created this Second Front video almost 6 months ago, so I’m uploading it now…a bit late. Close Combat versus vehicles in Second Front is a bit of a mystery. In this video I attempt, once again, to show players the mechanics that are going on under the hood and how they can use that knowledge to increase their chances of success when trying to take out a pesky tank or halftrack.

Here’s what’s covered in the video:

  • The mechanics of vehicle close combat
  • How it’s derived from the ASL rules
  • Infantry close combat vs. a vehicle
  • AFV close combat vs. infantry

Beginning ASL players and Second Front players will find this video useful.

Check it out.
