Just to clarify, all hits have to be allocated to the closest unhit unit
*that can be hit by that number.* Putting a unit with an AV of 6 in
front of several units with an AV of 4 does not protect any of the rearmost
units from being hit by a die roll of 4 or 5, and only from the first roll
of 6. (Provided, of course, that they are within range.)
