Oh well.
Targeted Attacks
-
@Krieghund It appears that both Blockhouses and Bombers have targeted attacks. If the same rules apply to both, my question is: are the dice rolled and THEN the attacker selects the defender’s casualties or must the attacker call out the individual targets before rolling?
Or is the targeted attack sequential in that if both bombers are attacking a single zone filled with all three types of German units - can the allied player roll one die and assign the hit before rolling the second die and assigning any hit it might make?

@The_Good_Captain Technically, you have to choose a target before rolling each die. However, pretty much the same thing can be accomplished by rolling all the dice at once for units that can hit the same target(s) and then assigning the hits. For example, you could roll for all bombers in the same zone together, as they all have the same target choices.

I very much appreciate you taking the time but I am still if not more confused. Let me ask in a different way by switching to a turn 1 example. There are three blockhouses that fire at Sword beach. Sword beach has three potential target types. Which of the following is correct?
Example 1: The German player declares that two blockhouses will target the armor and one blockhouse will target the artillery. The two that target the armor both hit eliminating it from play. The blockhouse that targets the artillery misses. The end.
Example 2: The German player rolls three dice and gets two hits. He removes the British armor and artillery. The end.
Which is the correct approach to targeted attacks?

@The_Good_Captain Example 2.
