From the 3 questions thread of Aaron...


3.Enfilade.
Two clear adjacent hexes.
Two M3 Stuarts.
Two Arisaka Riflemen (One in each M3 Stuart's hex)
It's the UK's turn.
M3 Stuart A makes the Arisaka Rifle in M3 Stuart B's hex face M3 Stuart A's hex.
Does M3 Stuart B get the +1 bonus to his attack die against the Arisaka Rifle in his own hex?

Y2UAsk answered:

3. No. To get the enfilade bonus, the attacker must "trace line of sight through the rear of that enemy Soldier's hex." If the attacker and target are in the same hex, then the attacker's line of fire doesn't cross any hexside, and thus doesn't qualify for the bonus.


...

I know that enfilade can be triggered by vehicles, but I did think that vehicles NEVER "fire" with the enfilade bonus?

All units can get the enfilade bonus -- Soldiers, Vehicles, and Aircraft.
