EAH, pg34 "Flak attacks may not be carried out by units belonging to a formation that is marching or broken. This aside, flak attacks are a ‘free’ or bonus attack, and making a flak attack does not stop the unit attacking again later in the same turn." It isn't completely clear if Flak Attacks are suppressable or not. I see cause to believe it could be interpreted either way. Which is the correct way? A) As long as it's not broken, it gets to fire. B) As long as it's not suppressed, it gets to fire. Morgan Vening |

From the FAQ: 4.2.4 Q: If a formation has Blast Markers and wants to fire its AA weapon(s) at an enemy air formation, but the only unit that has the range or the LOF to that enemy is the AA unit, is the AA unit suppressed? A: All ground units are considered to have an LOF to air units so all the units in the formation, not just the AA unit, would be considered to have an LOF to the aircraft formation. If the AA unit is the only unit in the formation that is in range of the aircraft then it would be suppressed. If other units in the formation were in range then they could be considered valid Suppression targets, not just the AA unit. Note that a unit can be suppressed when firing at an aircraft even if it has no AA attack value. |

Ahhh, it's one of 'those'. Fair enough. Just for complete clarification, barrage weapons aren't disqualified, no? So a Whirlwind formation with auxillary Hunter, assuming they are all clustered together, with 2BP, essentially have a 45cm AA range? Morgan Vening |
