Re: [DS] Anti-air

Derek wrote (via Beth mail):
> 1) Opportunity fire against pop up targets - he's been playing it
that the opportunity firer fires before the VTOL doing the pop up
fires. Derek may have missed it, but he can't find if there's any
mention of which way it should be done. Is this how you guys do it?

	Shooting is quicker than movement. Derek's right. Think of it as
the
VTOL starts moving up from cover and starts getting into firing
position. The enemy can see the movement and interrupt it by firing
their weapons.

> 2) Firing at VTOLS which are low - is there any limit at the size of
weapon which can fire at them, e.g. two-gun VTOL section pops up from
behind a hill to attack with its GMSH a platoon of tanks armed with
MDC5s (large as possible size weapon). Once again Derek may have missed
something obvious, but the tanks get to fire with their MDC5s (big
hulking gun) at agile, fleeting, VTOL target - it just doesn't seem to
gel (he's unaware of today's main battle tanks aiming and engaging
helicopters). Is there a limit to the size class that can engage, from
the ground, VTOL's at low altitude?

	No limit, unless both players agree to one. A limit makes senses
for a
WWII, Korean, Arab/Israeli or Vietnam war scenarios.

I hope that helps! ^_^
