I wondered what would happen if I were to occupy an enemies reinforcement hex?
The reinforcements came on map in the reinforcement hex and pushed the occupying forces back one hex. No assault or any Op fire.
I tried again by maxing out the number of T-34's I could put in a German reinforcement hex and brought 8 Tiger platoons on map. Same thing happened. T-34's got pushed back a hex and no assault or Op fire.
Once I did fire a Tiger, all hell broke loose with Op fire and direct fire resulting in the loss of 9 T-34's and 4 Tigers.
I doubt any of you will face a situation such as this, but I was curious whether you could keep units from entering the map?
Had the reinforcements been loaded trucks, I'm guessing that the tanks would still have been forced back?
