Tomb?

Not sure where this e-mail came from, so apologies if this is not an
answer 
to a question...

>Anyone have a ref from the book that says GMS/H and GMS/P don't have to

In SG, page 32, column 2, it doesn't quote cap points for GMS, it just
says:
"Guided Missile Systems: GMS/L = 2 GMS/H = 4"

Don't think you can mount a GMS/P on a vehicle (sorry if that was just a

typo...).

>I know in DS they are just flat cap points, but is this also true in
SG2 
>according to the rules text?

The SG book pretty much says buy DSII if you want to use vehicles. And
the 
only real difference that I can see (apart from things excluded in SGII)
is 
the infantry capacities.

>Plus in SG, an APSW (free) must be pintle, not under armour. How about
>DS2 APSW? I think it can be presumed under armour right? (or at least,
>no special rules for attacking unprotected APSW gunners exist IIRC).

DSII refers to a free APSW on page 11:

"All Military vehicles are fitted with one "Free" APSW, capable of
all-round 
fire; this does not count towards any weapons fit limitations, or take
up 
any capacity . [This is assumed to be a machinegun or equivalent, on an 
external remote mounting. Additional APSWs...."

Hope that that is of help,

Richard
