Keep in mind that the Low Ammo check is performed on the next player turn, so not during the next enemy phase.

If your unit fires in your turn and doesn't fire in the next enemy phase, it will have to roll for Low Ammo. The check isn't made for a single phase, but for the entire "turn" (your phase+the enemy phase after that).

As to being in command: the chance of making the roll increases as distance to the unit's HQ decreases when in command range. Being in command range isn't enough as being at the limit of the command rate gives a 50% chance of making the roll.

Funnily enough when I try to manage or reduce fatigue that's how I monitor it. I try to not move/fire and if adjacent hope that I'm not targeted.....which is not very likely. For some reason I thought Ammo/Fuel Low was different?



The confusion probably comes from the fact that the game talks about Turns with each Game Turn made up of 2 Player Turns, although like you I think of them as 'phases'.

The game rules talk about things in terms of 'turns', but as I've found out these are not Game Turns or Player Turns????? My understanding is that it means the two preceding Player Turns.

Maybe I've complicated things?

By the way I take it that the game does not make any checks on Turn 1 for both players?
