Alan,

I believe the firing side and moving side of the vehicle is there for a reason. By that, it must need to flip. It would be quite strange having these creatures move to 1 hex, fire move away the next turn, fire etc

As I say, like Daniel, I had them use the 'flip' rule a la mortars because they DO have a flip side. If this was not needed, I think they would only have one side.

Another killer clue to the 'flip' argument is that on the firing side, their movement is 0, implying to me that they must become stationary and get themselves ready.

Going back to doctrine, these things apparently did not flit around battlefields loosing off shots every couple of hundred yards. According to wiki (easiest to check) - Once they had loosed off all their rockets they would re-locate 10km away or so to avoid counter-battery as per Soviet manuals ?

As always - Keep it simple Big Grin
