Default Re: Spillover fire from OGRE AP

I had the same problem tonight, although luckily the AI Ogre didn't roll well. Nightfall campaign scenario 2, 2x SHVY + INF(3) in a town+road hex, adjacent Mk. I Ogre with only AP weapons left. Ogre fired the AP at the INF, and afterward the game rolled for spillover on the two SHVYs.

I've always interpreted / assumed that 7.05.1 "AP weapons" : "... AP weapons are useless against anything except infantry, targets with a defense of 0, and other targets as designated in scenarios." trumped any other criteria. But, admittedly, the wording of 7.12.2 "Units affected by spillover fire" is phrased in such a way that it could possibly be interpreted differently.

We could use a formal ruling on this so we know whether this is a bug in the game we need to get reported.
