    Otto Carius, Tiger Ace Characteristics

    Otto Carius, Tiger Ace is a Warrior, rated Confident Veteran.


    Carius replaces the Command Tiger I E tank in a Schwere
    Panzer Platoon (see Grey Wolf, page 71) for +100points.
    When rolling for Tiger Ace skills, Carius Schwere Panzer
    Platoon does not roll for Tiger Ace skills because he has his own
    special rules below.

    Hero of the Fatherland

    Carius became something of a legend. He was approached by


    Himmler who tried to get Carius to join the Waffen-SSan offer
    he refused. Even the Soviets had placed a bounty on his head.
    If Carius is Destroyed during a game the morale of the entire
    German war effort takes a heavy blow, despite any other gains,
    and the German player loses one Victory Point and their
    opponent gains one Victory Point at the end of the battle.

    Ottos Kbelwagen

    Carius scouted in his Kbelwagon before each battle.


    Otto Carius may be either deployed as normal in his Tiger
    I E tank at the start of the game, or begin the game as a
    Kbelwagen Transport team.
    While mounted in the Kbelwagen, Carius is a Recce team. If
    mounted in his Kbelwagen, Carius Schwere Panzer Platoon
    must be held off-table at the beginning of the game, but counts
    as an on table platoon for the purposes of the Reserves rules.
    Dispite being modelled as a Kbelwagen, Carius counts as a
    on-table Fully-armoured Platoon for the Armoured Reserves
    rule (see page 269 of the rulebook).
    At the start of any of your turns, you may deploy Carius
    Schwere Panzer Platoon held off-table so that all of the
    platoons tanks are within 6/15cm of Carius Kbelwagen.
    In addition, each Tiger I E tanks must be:
    More than 16/40cm away from all enemy teams, and

    Carius takes Command

    While not the official company commander, Carius took over a


    lot of the responsibilities, leading the company into combat and
    keeping his men steady in the face of battle.
    Carius may take Company Morale Checks as if he were the
    Company Command team if the Company Command team
    is Destroyed.
    While Carius commands his platoon, he may re-roll any
    failed Platoon Morale Checks.

    What a Bunch of Heroes!

    As a young Feldwebel, Carius learned a valuable lesson when he


    made the hasty decision to pull out of a fire fight. The infantry he
    was supposed to support narrowly managed to keep the Soviets
    at bay and they made sure Carius knew their disappointment.
    Otto remembered this lesson and never let it happen again.
    Carius Schwere Panzer Platoon may re-roll any failed
    Motivation Tests to Counterattack in assaults.

    Every Shot Counts!

    Carius and his gunner, Kramer, destroyed an impressive amount


    of Soviet tanks in 1944, earning a total of over 150 kills!
    Tiger tanks in Carius platoon re-rolls any failed To Hit
    rolls when they shoots.

    Setting up the shot

    Carius was a genius at spotting targets and setting up excellent


    shots in order to inflict the maximum damage on enemy tanks.
    Enemy teams do not benefit from Concealment when shot at by
    Carius. Furthermore, Carius ignores the normal +1 modifier
    when shooting at teams greater than 16/40cm away.

    Concealed or entirely out of Line of Sight of the enemy.

    Once deployed, Carius remounts his Tiger I E tank and


    fights as normal. Remove Carius Kbelwagen. The Tigers
    placed on the table in this way can move and fight as
    normal during the turn they appear.
    If Carius is Destroyed while mounted in his Kbelwagen,
    his Schwere Panzer Platoon is immediately placed in
    Reserve. Carius Tiger becomes a normal Command
    TigerIE tank that still uses the Every Shot Counts special
    rule, even though Carius has been Destroyed.

    Feldwebel Albert Kerscher

    Feldwebel Albert Kerscher was Cariuss right-hand man.


    Together they accumulated nearly 260 kills during their careers.
    You may nominate one Tiger I E tank in Cariuss Schwere
    Panzer platoon to be commanded by Feldwebel Albert
    Kerscher for +50 points.
    In addition, while in Kerscher is within Command Distance of
    Carius, Kerscher may use the Setting up the Shot special rule.
