A gun functions only with at least four friendly men within six inches.

How it works

A gun is in action only if at least four men of its own side are within six inches; otherwise it can neither move nor fire. It may move or fire in a move but not both. After firing two men must be placed at the end of its trail, and when moved it is placed trail forward and four men must move with it.

A gun is in action if there are at least four men of its own side within six inches of it. If there are not at least four men within that distance, it can neither be moved nor fired.
