Cleaning up the rules regarding Reduced Squads. Originally, to keep it simple, the player was allowed a choice to attack with a Squad LMG of a Reduced squad. The problem is, that when a squad deploys its LMG, it is marked as Reduced and should not be able to attack with a phantom second LMG. This change will force players to choose what is left behind when a squad is reduced by combat; a LMG or Reduced Squad team.
1.3.1 REDUCED SQUAD: A Squad that deploys its LMG team or deploys into separate identical teams or has sustained a Casualty is said to be Reduced. ROF for any weapons listed are reduced to 1 (if higher than 1), it may not attack with any Squad LMG and it may only attack with one weapon type per Combat Impulse (owners choice). When taking a Casualty Point, a team owner may choose to replace the Reduced team with a Squad LMG (if team has one listed). When in Hand-to-Hand (see rule 4.0) and Vehicle Close Assault (see rule 3.3), a Reduced Squad must add +1 to its attack roll. A Reduced team may be marked with a BLUE bead or bingo chip placed on/underneath the team.
