Striker morale and light wounds

[PhilB]

Rule 12-B-2: A casualty is defined as any wound or death of any soldier ...

So a light wound to any soldier counts.

Rule 12-A-2: A stand ... has its morale reduced by one for each casualty the stand suffers.

Does 12-A-2 apply to multiple light wounds? So if an elite soldier in a stand of four soldiers suffers five light wounds, is his stand down by 5 morale points?

Interesting question but rule 28-C-1 may shed some light:

"Regardless of whether a soldier continues to function as a result of a light wound, he is considered a casualty for morale purposes"

This would suggest that the first wound causes the casualty and hence affects morale but further wounds do not.

Aza.

Thanks. I keep finding bits of rules (read: people keep pointing out the bits I missed! ) and that makes sense. The folk over on the ct-striker Yahoo group said something similar, too.
