Possibly intentional, but mega cheesy. Cantabrian upgrades to skilled shooters in the Characteristics Sheet. Thus if you downgrade the shooting quality in your list to unskilled, they are still skilled when in Cantrabrian ...?

Yup - has crossed my mind a few times but feels too much like cheese ...

Troops in Cantabrian upgrade their shooting to Skilled as long as the shooting SuG is not doing a Run Away response.

That's a nice one. Hope we have an answer before next week-end

IMO there is nothing to answer, the characteristic is quite clear.

Now whether it is a good thing ...

I do not believe that this is what was intended.  I have asked Simon to issue an immediate clarification.

Sounds like someone just played Adrian Pitfield ;) , it came up at Campaign too.
List bounced...

Its been mentioned a couple of times before - bit of a surprise that more hasn't been made of it.

i think it was not imagined that players would downgrade shooting skill to take advantage of it. rather cheesy to do so i must say

Was brought up in 2018 on the old forum , and was subject of a clarification.. but seems to have got lost

Has it been changed yet ? If not. Good way of saving points. Well spotted Mr Whittam. LOL

Easy to fix. Just state in the characteristic that it is only available to experienced shooters.

Wasn't expecting characteristic to be allowed for Unskilled. Gliche between rules and lists.
The idea of unskilled shooters being good enough to form cantabrian .... seems like a null set to me.
So it now isn't. RJC and I agreed.

Cantrabian
Cannot be used by unskilled shooters. Upgrade to Skilled is from Experienced only.
