Re: [GZG] FMA Skirmish Scenario - special rules for comment

Forgot to add

Hostages

If any hostages are in base to base contact with a terrorist and is
between 
the terrorist and anyone shooting them, the following applies.

Children count as soft cover

Adults count as hard cover

If the cover die exceeds both the firers rolls then the hostage is hit
roll 
to wound as normal.
