(Patrol Angis pg52) I think there might be a problem with some of the

meaning neither benefit from either of those abilities. This carries over
to Nobles Mina, Retained Signaller Mina, Retained Medic Mina, General Combat

Ranged Combat

(Patrol Angis pg32) You can "Move and Fire" to get into Close Combat.
Does that mean you can shoot, move, and melee as an action?
What happens is you declare you want to move into close combat,
however if your movement value is not enough to enter close combat,
it turns into a Move and Fire action. This way, your action wasn’t fully
wasted.
You could however spend an action to make it into close combat, then
provided you survive to your next activation, use a Move and Shoot to
break away and shoot at the enemy element.

Well, let’s check your math: Assaulter kicks in first as it adds 2 to your
base attack stat, making it 3. Your Roaz Ax grants you 2 dice, and then
Brawler adds one more on top of that for 3 dice. So 3 attacks with 3
dice each comes to 9 dice per mini. Four minis comes out to 36 hits.
Brutal isn’t it?

Exactly. Only once the Protectors are dead do you get to start choosing
