These represent the bat- tlefcld and can be butted end-to-end or sideto side together with others to form diferent play- ing areas. Superimposed over the map isa hex ‘rid used to measure distance. Each hex contains 8 specific type of terrain. Different types of tex- rnin have different effects on movement and combat. Each hex also contains its own grid ‘coordinate that indicates its location onthe map (e-g.chex K2). Listing the mapboard in font of the coordinate (e., 3K2) provides & unique ientitier for any hex ia the system. Each hex contains & white dot gat marks the center ofthe hex, This is used in determining Line of Sight (LOS). Half hexes slong the board edge are the ‘equivalent of hexes, although the grid coordinate nd white center dot may be missing. LL Terrain Types: For aesthetic purposes, teruin symbology may ‘extend marginally out ofa hex into an adjacent hex of another terrain type, but most hexes are dominated by one specific teri type and ate sgovemed by the rules for that specific terrain ‘ype, Usually the dominant train type ineludes the hex center dot, but occasionally non-Open Ground hexes have a hex center dot in Open Ground, Some terrain is harder to move through than other terrain; movement costs ar expressed in Movement Factors (MF) for Infantry and in “Movement Points (MP) for vehicles.

An Armored Car may not setup in or enter a building. A Fully ‘Tracked Armored Fighting Vehicle (AFV) that is Buttoned Up (BU) (7.7) may enter a building at half its tol MP allooment while taking a Bog (Check (7.6). The TEM for a stone (gray) building is +3 and fora wooden (brown) building is +2. Roads: Roads represent cither paved or dirt sur- faces. A road represented by a brown stripe, such as 117, is a dim road while one represented by gray stripe, such as $P6, is paved surface, A road ‘is considered Open Ground for all purpose. Additionally, Infantry that erosses only road hex sides througout is entre MPh is entitled 10 one extra MF (the road bonus) unless it claims the protective benefits of a Woods-Road hex oF the non open ground of an Orchard-Road hex, oF has to pay the extra movement costs for entering ‘Smoke (1.25). Crossing a read hexside costs both Armored Cars and Fully Tracked vehicles MP if Crew Exposed (CE 7.7) or 1 MP if Buttoned Up (BU), Woods: Woods represent 4 forested area with sense undergrowth, such as sU7. IF the “LOS between two units eros: es the woods depiction then the woods hex is aa obstacle to both units if they are onthe same level asthe Woods depic- tion, Woods are also a LOS obstacle to the LOS between two units a different levels, Woods cost Infantry 2 MF to enter.

Orchards cost Infantry 1 MF to enter (Orchards cost an Armored Car 3 MP anda Fully ‘Tracked vehicle | MP to enter. There is no TEM for an orchard, but because it isnot Open Ground, FFMO does not apply, and Interdietion is negated. Orchards are in season during the months of April through October. An inseason orchard is ‘an obstacle to any LOS drawn between units at diferent elevations. Each out-of season orchard hhex (November through March) adds a +1 Hindrance DRM to any LOS drawn between units at different elevations. An Orchard hex is ‘considered Inherent Tern (3.2.1) so the entire hex including hensides affect LOS. drawn through an Orchard es. Orchard-Road: A. hex containing both orchard and road symbols such as NT is actually toe. lined road. Entrance of such ahex through a road hexside is identical to movement along any road. Hindrances do not apply to such hexes if that portion ofthe LOS from firrto target never leaves the confines ofthe toad depiction regard- less of elevation differences. In such cases, the ~ I FFMO DRM applies to Tnfanry using the road to move, Otherwise, rchard-roads a identical to otchatds in every respect.

The season for Grain is during the months of June 1 September Gnolusive). Outside this season grain hexes are tteated as Open Ground instead Grain costs Infantry 1.5 MF to enter when in season. Grain costs an Armored Car 4 MP to enter and a Fully ‘Tracked vehicle 1 MP.

A. Crest Line is formed in every hex where two ifferent full level elevations meet, such as BB7.

These include such counters as Prep Fire, First Fite, Pin, DM, Smoke, and Crow” Exposed. Informational counters will be described during the discussion of the sequence o play. Personnel counters come in two main types, Single-Man Counters and Multi Man Counters. 41.2.1 Single-Man Counters (SMC) SMC (or leaders) are eit units, which bear @ single silhouette and represent just one man Leaders have a two number strength facto hich consists ofthe leader's moral (onthe bot tom), and his leadership DRM (on the top) ‘These later are expressed as 2 negative number ‘ @ zero, of occasionally a +1. An unbroken, upinned leader may use his leadership DRM to affect the performance of other personnel in his location. Leadership modifiers are not eumula- tive. A leader may attempt only one action pet ‘phase, but may use his leadership modifier (even iO o¢-+1) more than once in the same phase only to attempt to rally more than one unit in a RPh, to direct ROF and/or Defensive Fire attacks, and toassst units with Morale Checks (MC). ° 1.22 Multi-Man Counters (MMC) MMC are units that bear the silhouette of more than one man. There are three types of MMC ‘used in this game: squad, half squad (HS), and Infantry crews. A squad bears the silhouete of free men, a HS that of two men, and Infantry crew that of wo men kneeling, Infantry crews ate alvays elite. The Squads and HS counters are defined as either E-iit), 1 First Line), 2 (Gecond Line), G (Green), or C (Conserip®) ‘hich is noted inthe upper righthand comer of the counter. Two HS or crew counters equal one squad in size Fach MMC contains a thoe-digit number called it strength factor that quantitis its eapa- bilities in the game. Firepower (EP) i the let- ‘most factor and represents the FP the MMIC can attack with prior to any modification. The mid- dle number (ts normal range) isthe number of Jhexes away tha it ean reach with it full FP. The third strength factor is its Morale, the relative rating of a unit's ability to withstand punishment before breaking. Some squads have a Smoke [Exponent as a superscript to their FP strength 9 Indicate they ean attempt to place Smoke srenades. 1.23 Broken Side: ‘The reverse side of each SMC and MMC is its broken sie.

These include Machine Guns (MG), Flamethrowers (FT), Demolition Charges (DO), Light Mortars, and Light Anti-Tank ‘Weapons (LATW). These SW are possessed by the unit stacked immedistely beneath them. A ‘SW must be possessed t be fred or moved. SW hhave a portage requirement (Portage Points ot PP, list on the counter. SW have both a range and a FP that is utilized like that of a MMC.

Guns are possessed, transfered, recovered, and destroyed as ifa SW (40). There are five types of Guns. The type is depicted on the counters in abbreviated form. ‘They are: MTR = Mortar, AT = Ant-Tank Gun, INF = Infantry Howitzer, ART = Artillery, and ‘AAs Anti-Aireft Gun.
