Hope Ed (or someone equally qualified) will answer these questions about Shooting:
Team A-B-C-etc won the In Sight against Team 1-2-3-etc. Must all of Team A-B-C-etc assign specific target in Team 1-2-3-etc before rolling the dice? Or does A-B-C-etc fire one of its guys before firing the next. I.e., A fires at 1 & 3. Calculate results. Now C fires at 2. And so forth?
Speaking of results: If, say, 2 can return fire at C, does it do so immediately or waits until all of A-B-C-etc has fired?
When are results put into effect? 2 can fire back but someone of A-B-C-etc, say D, can still fire at him. And it turns out that D inflicts a Duck Back result. I should think 2 ducks back without firing. Is that the case? I.e., assign all "hits' and whatever on Team 1-2-3-etc before Team 1-2-3-etc Reacts. Will need markers to keep track, I should think.

If memory serves, each rule set is a little different. I'm fairly confident is saying, though, that Nuts has you assigning targets before rolling the dice. You have the firing side choose one for one, and the reactors will fire at whomever is targeting them. I use a lot of different colored dice- 3 rep rifles are white, 4 Rep SMG is this etc. Then you do the full combat between two figures Action & Reaction: Fire at their targets, targets may or may not fire back, go until the tables have you stop firing and then move on to the next soldier. After the smoke clears you'll have some bodies and a hole lotta Duck Backs. Then find someone brave enough to stick their head back up, start an Insight and do it all over again.
Hope that helps.

We meet again! Thanks for your answer. The need for an (other) In Sight when soldiers didn't go out of sight? Somewhere someone else said to roll for Activation instead.

I mean once everyone is out of sight (which is usually what happens). If they are still just standing there, then yes it would be Activation, but odds are the group will be behind buildings/sandbags and the like after the dust clears.

Hope Ed (or someone equally qualified) will answer these questions about Shooting: Team A-B-C-etc won the In Sight against Team 1-2-3-etc. Must all of Team A-B-C-etc assign specific target in Team 1-2-3-etc before rolling the dice? Yes. When all have been targeted once then they can be targeted a second time. Or does A-B-C-etc fire one of its guys before firing the next. I.e., A fires at 1 & 3. Calculate results. Now C fires at 2. And so forth? No. Assign then resolve them all. Then resolve any Duck backs, Damage or return firing.Speaking of results: If, say, 2 can return fire at C, does it do so immediately or waits until all of A-B-C-etc has fired? W ait until all firing from A-B-C have been resolved - Duck Back, damage, etc. Then return fireWhen are results put into effect? As outlined above. 2 can fire back but someone of A-B-C-etc, say D, can still fire at him. And it turns out that D inflicts a Duck Back result. I should think 2 ducks back without firing. Is that the case? Correct, when suffer more than one result always take the worse. So if you get a Duck Back and Return Fire, you Duck Back. I.e., assign all "hits' and whatever on Team 1-2-3-etc before Team 1-2-3-etc Reacts. Correct. Will need markers to keep track, I should think. Y ou'll see it's easy to remember but they could help.

Thanks, Ed. I knew you weren't far away! I take it that the ranking in the "CARRY ON" section (on page 22) clarifies which results are the worst and take precedence in assigning results. E.g., "Outgunned" and "Leave the Battlefield" mean he leaves the battlefield.
