We had an interesting situation with a multiple assaults occuring as players alternated moved multiple units into essentially the same CC. A Russian MG was contacted to its flank by a German Squad, which itself was then contacted by a Russian Squad. The Russian Squad was then Contacted in the rear by a Second German Squad. Now the rules for CC say the active player chooses the order that the assaults are resolved. With using the alternative sequence of play (pg 7 BKC)there is no active player in the initiative phase. So our question is who chooses the order in which the combats are resolved. I would be interested to hear if anyone else has encountered this dilema.

Well we play the alternate system, and would have resolved by the player who made the first contacting move is the active player OR just massed all the dice and fought it as one big CC, wither way seems fine to me.

Okay, first contacting works. If you mass the dice how did you decide upon assigning hits?

Okay that sounds like a plan we will try that.
