Sorry to be Mr Loadsa questions at the moment. Just want to check I've got this right.

I note helicopters can use both their normal and ATGW attacks in one turn. So say a AH1 with 5/50 normal attacks and 6/150 with TOW would firstly effect everything in the zone with 5 attacks and then all the armoured targets again with 6 attacks?

Thanks

I think you would need to pass two successive orders to fire both weapons systems, although any further order passes would allow you to fire the normal attacks each activation, it's only the ATGMs that are restricted to once per turn.

Agreed. Also, ATGW do not fire using a template, they fire as ATGW (rules on p24) at one target.
TBH, we don't use the standard rules, but have largely replaced them with the equivalent rules from Future War Commander.
