Special Unit Abilities
The special unit abilities described here are intended for use with the Alpha Strike rule system:
 Improved Advanced Tactical Missiles (IATM)
Units with the IATM special may conduct missile attacks using Improved ATM munitions. These alternate munitions are:

Indirect Fire: This represents an IATM firing standard long-range missiles, which enables the unit to execute an attack as if it has an IF value equivalent to its IATM Long-range value (i.e., an IATM2/2/2 special can also act as an IF2 special).

Magnetic Pulse: Using this alternate munition attack, the unit’s normal attack is reduced by 1 point at Short range. But if this attack hits a target in the Short range bracket, the target suffers a loss of 2 inches of Move, as well as a –1 Target Number modifier for all weapon attacks, throughout the following turn. (Multiple magnetic pulse hits will not stack these modifiers.)

Improved Inferno: Using this alternate munition attack, the unit’s normal attack is reduced by 1 point at both Short and Medium range. But if this attack hits a target in those range brackets, the target also suffers the effects of a HT special attack equal to the numerical value of the unit’s IATM special at those ranges, to a maximum of 2 points at any range bracket (i.e., IATM3/1/- will transate to a HT2/1/- effect).
