I'd like to add a few things to my two previous questions about SG2. The
question relating to firing the ten man squad twice as two five-man fire
teams assumed no support weapons, all troops have the same weapon.

Also, is it OK for a leader to activate another squad, fire that squad, use
the leader's second action to activate the SAME squad again and have that
squad fire again with its new activation? Thus, a leader could cause ONE
particular squad to have two activations (four actions) and leave the squad
still with its own activation remaining?

Thanks,

...This is _exactly_ what you are supposed to do with squad leaders ! If
you're not doing so, how the hell are you getting in to close assault over
open ground!!...IMHO its why I like SGII (Ambush style leader lead cbt. for 2
or more players)

Remember if you havent spent 80% of your time sat around you're waisting ammo!

Doesn't matter, see my previous post...

Yes, provided that the squad receiving the 4 actions is subordinate to the
leader and the leader is a Platoon Commander or higher. Makes those leaders
VERY useful...
