Really?  Then there is a difference firing a MDC versus different kinds
of PDS in DS2?	 Page or archive message, please...

Perhaps but Zumbro's Vietnam armor experiences in his book suggests that
DS 2 is less then reflective of that capability.  There they fired at
mutiple targets  (multiple targeted APSW type weapons plus the main gun
at same or different targets.)

DS 2 has the ability to re-actrivate unitd like SG 2?  Did I miss some
errata/change?	I was under the impression that the wording on page 18
was still in force.
