Im not sure if this would be allowed but why not but Artillery or some other anti-infantry weapon on the firing platform and then use it to wipe out the enemy infantry… Just a thought

My apologies, I don’t normally check this subforum so I missed this one… but (belatedly):

Superior Armour X - An attack must beat this unit’s defense by X or more in order to score two hits against it.

Normally to score two hits with one attack you only have to get 1 more than the units defence. With Superior Armour X you have to beat it by X instead.

For example to score two hits to damage a Chaffee I would need 6 successes (Chaffee is Defence 4, Superior Armour 2). Let’s say the Chaffee was only disrupted by my attack, so next turn my attacker fires again  - I would need 5 successes against the Chaffee now since it’s defence is down to 3 because of disruption, and Superior Armour 2. Once again I’m unlucky and only disrupt it, or more accurately - only cause one hit; however I have a second unit able to fire on the Chaffee. I roll 5 successes against it; this beats the Superior Armour 2 so I score two hits. It already has one hit, so with two more it will be destroyed during the casualty phase.

I don’t have the rules in front of me, but I’m pretty sure it is once for every attack, even including the double-shot ability.
