Subject: [SG2] Errata and other questions - got any answers?

Q1: My QR sheet says the FP of an IAVR is D10. Text description on Unguided
Rockets says D8. Which is the case? (Right now, I've assumed a good modern
IAVR is D10, and an older one is D8, but I'm curious what the real rule is).

Q2: How do snipers move? This isn't a trick question. If I read the rules
right, he can freely switch between firing positions (after making a roll and
expending an action). But how does the sniper move his firing points? To shoot
and scoot, sometimes he should actually scoot a good distance. Does he 1)
become visible, move normally 2) when done moving, attempt to go into hiding,
thus letting him place new dummies as well OR does he move hidden somehow?

Input from those in the know most appreciated. BTW, a list member came up with
some rules for snipers attached to squads. Who is the guilty party? I liked
them. If said person wouldn't mind, I'd like to see them posted to the
Unofficial SG2 page. If said author grants me permission (or forwards me a
copy), I'll produce them and insure Jeremy Sadler gets a copy for the USG2WWW
page. They'll go well with my spotter rules which I'm cleaning up now.

Tom.
