Re: (DSII) Question about Infantry Walkers

My IAVR armed rifle infantry sniped off a walker or two from any

changes the walker who die with much chance to fire effectively.
Remember walker can only fire out the vehicle except for APSW, so
manoeuvre
does matter. The house rules has little real effect one way or another.
