Hiya all,

>1) Is there a 'surprise' rule, which allows you to scare away detachments
?
>I thought (I haven't got my rules book here) that the sequence was
something

SM
>fire at the Gargant ???

I guess this is in fact just poetic license. You can shoot, firefight and
close assault all in the same turn. The situation is possible that because
the Orks were in the woods no shooting between the SM and Boyz could take
place, but a firefight may have taken place. The order in which the events
have been described in the paragraph are out of turn sequence, but could
syill happen. Assuming the 18 SM stands could beat the Orks in a FF :o)

There is infact a rule covering surprise in the Planetary Assault scenario
(or is it in the Hidden units rules). Anyway, when the detachment is
revealed, the player must roll d6 to see if they are surprised (and
broken).

Have a look in the battles book.

Cheers, Chris.
