"The 7.5cm GebK 15 or Skoda 75mm Model 15 as it was known first
entered service with the Austria-Hungarian Army. After 1918, it was also
pressed into service with the Czech, Austrian and Hungarian Armies." |
|
This means you can always rely on
artillery support in areas that are too remote for conventional
artillery.
The gun can be broken down into six components
and carried by pack mules or, in desperate situations, by the
Gebirgsjäger themselves. A large armoured gun shield has been installed
to protect the crew.

|
|
"Observer teams need a good view of the
battlefield in order to do their job correctly. Be sure to deploy them
in a position where they have an excellent view of the battlefield such
as on a hilltop or on the top floor of a multi-level building." |
The 7.5cm GebK15 gun (Gebirgsjäger) Staff Team |
"An artillery platoon with a Staff team can repeat an
artillery bombardment in subsequent turns once it has ranged in on an
aiming point. You do not need to roll again to range in, nor is there
any penalty to the score needed to hit if your artillery Ranged In on
the second or third attempts." |

"The 7.5cm GebK 15 broke down into four separate loads each comprising of six sub-assemblies and the gun shield." |
"The 7.5cm GebK15 gun has a Gun
shield which means that even if you fail a Gun save, your opponent must
make a Firepower test to destroy that team. But remember, Gun shields
only provide Bulletproof cover from shots fired from in front of the
gun; they do not provide protection if a team moved At The Double or from artillery bombardments." |
