Perhaps I'm being a little unclear, to clarify:

  Two armour units (i.e.: two units consisting soley of 
vehicles) - however unlikely - end up facing off in urban 
terrain.
  The armour units cannot fire at each other using 
direct fire weapons (as it is an urban area) and may not 
close assault (as only infantry can initiate a close 
assault).
  How can I attack the opposing unit with the troops at my 
disposal?
