Doesn't what you're saying about the Hero's ability to use the BAZ (which is correct) apply to ANY SW which usually requires 2 SMC? >>A15.23 WEAPONS USE: A hero may use a non-MG [errata included] SW as if he were a leader but applies a -1 DRM to its To Hit or IFT DR. In addition, a hero uses a SW normally requiring two men to fire by adding +1 to its To Hit or IFT DR as appropriate (which is negated by the heroic DRM).
This appears to be correct and I question myself why the unique rule for a Baz. I will have to research and see if the same holds true for a panzershrek and PIAT.
@@georgehiotis 13.48 PANZERSCHRECK (PSK):All BAZ rules apply to the PSK35 except that the latter does not fire WP, has its own To Hit Table printed on the back of its counter, has an IFT effect of 12 (see 8.31), resolves So Yes for the Schrek and any SMC can fire a PIAT at full effect. 13.62 SMC USAGE: A PIAT can be used by a SMC at full effect with no penalty, although no leadership modifier would apply unless a non-firing leader directed the attack.
