Default Re: NLAW

Missiles don't use the 1-2-3 shot ladder of normal guns.

However, a second ATGM shot opportunity will have less time remaining in a move since the first one took up 20-30 seconds - so is generally less likely to hit (though a shot at a disabled target may still get a high %age). And a second shot in a row from the same spot is more likely to be spotted and avoided, and/or return fire made at the launcher before the missile impacts.

It's better to leave any second ATGM shot opportunity (if you shot in your phase) for the opfire phase IMHO. 1 ready shot is a guaranteed opfire opportunity - a launcher on 0 opportunities may well not fire opfire, if low experience.

I generally prefer to leave my ATGM on a filter for MBT type targets, especially if the enemy is coming at me, and so any with 2 shot opportunities will be guaranteed to fire twice in opfires.

Cheers
Andy
