Deployment area

Group 1. Platoon leader and a 2-4-7 (rifle squad) x 1 with LMG deployed in Hex B-8 (half hex).

Group 2. 2-4-7 (rifle squad) x 1 with the unassembled 50mm Mortar deployed at Hex C-9.

Group 3. 2-4-7 (rifle squad) x 1 deployed in Hex D-8 (half hex).

Was that about right in general Matt?

New Deployment:
Group 1: E10
Group 2: F9
Group 3: H10

Same arrangement as above. Move order will come later.

One down two to go!

Deuce, sorry to be a noodge today with all the questions! On my new Turn 1 Orders in post #19, can you explain the legality of my firing from H7 through to O6? What I'm looking for is an explaination of tracing LOS. How does the graphic in the hex work? If LOS isn't traced through the graphic itself (i.e., trees), is it clear; or does the graphic represent to entire hex (minus the edge line in some cases)? Different games allow, meaning LOS is traced JUST through the graphic; while other games have even a tiny smidge of terrain like trees (for esthetics) count as the entire hex.

With Woods,and Buildings hexes, if it hits the actual graphic it is blocked. Orchards are special in that anything traced through the entire hex is affected.

So this might mean that IF WR is not dug in he can "see" over the hedge line, and take a shot, OR he can fire THROUGH the hedge line , but there will less of a "chance" of a hit.

Cheers, thoughts DD?

A specific list of terrain you can fire through if not dug in maybe......

Also on the terain in hexes like F-8 and F-9, they are just "brush", so they can be fired and seen through, but both sides through will have a harder time hitting each other, correct?

He can see and shot though it with an impact of the damage.

If you are dug in you can't see over anything but Open Ground.

It is not considered a LOS obstruction unless LOS goes through more than 3 hexes of Brush. Fire at units through Brush hexes makes it harder to hit those being fired at.

Deployment area is HexRows 9-10 so the units posted for HexRow 8 need to be relocated. Once I have that, A Co should be deployed on the map and should be ready to go

HHMMM, I thought you said we could use either half hex for deployment in chat, my mistake again, sorry...

I'll go over mine again and may have to reposition most of my units, sad to say.

Cheers Co A Commander...... X for the moment til I post my first fire and movement for turn 1 tonight!!

Half hexes meaning those along the board edges, not half of an existing full hex.

Roger Mike, new deployment almost done.....

Co A "X"

[TRDG]

Important!!!


Co A (and Co B maybe), check The Game Den for your squad markers (1st and 2nd Platoons!!!), I forgot to notice the ATR (anti-tank rifles) til now, so those need to be asigned to one of your squads ASAP please.

No "cheer" for me, sorry guys and gals!!!
