Impulse 3 Order 2 is a Tactical Movement Order by Makarov in L4.
To do a Tactical Movement those that move do so with their Movement Point Allowance halved. (losing all fractions) And if they fire they lose 2 Infantry Firepower points or add +2 to any 'To Hit' attempt. Whether or not that particular unit moves doesn't matter. The Tactical Movement penalties apply to all units using the order.
In this case Makarov, in L4, would have 3 Movement Points, the Crew would have 1 Movement Point, the Regular Fire Team would have 2 Movement Points and the Green Fire Team would have 2 Movement Points available to move. For any unit that moves it's entire movement with a leader there is a 1 Movement Point bonus. That would give both Fire Teams an additional Movement Point and have 3 available to them. The Crew would only gain to where it has 2.
The Fire Teams in location M4 would both have 2 Movement Points available to them.
Each stack of units moving does so individually for purposes of determining Opportunity Fire.
The Fire Teams in location M4 move first. They move into L5 (1) and then L6 (1). The US Fire Team in J6 can see them in L6 and they are at range 2. This can trigger an Opportunity Fire if the US Player wishes to. The dilemma is that they can only fire Opportunity Fire once per impulse. Makarov has already activated for Tactical Movement. He and the two Fire Teams have a movement of up to 3 Movement Points.
Where is he going???? He can't fire so he has to move. Where will he move???
Does the US Fire Team Opportunity Fire on those in the open now or wait? They have to declare their intention now before any other movement takes place.
They decide to hold their fire in hopes of getting a shot at Makarov.
