It sure is!

Thanks for sharing...

@ 17 mins he states that as long as an engineer unit is in a minefield hex other units can move through that hex without the possibility of taking losses from the minefield, this is of course only true of you move through the hex in T mode and not deployed.

See section 8.3 on page 85 of the user manual.

This characteristic of travel mode through a minefield occupied by a clearing engineering unit holds true in Panzer Battles to? Correct?

Page 62 of the Panzer Battles user manual:

Mines clearing units must be undisrupted for a whole turn to be successful. The Engineer or mine clearing unit must also stay in the minefield and expend no movement points.

If satisfied, then at the start of the next turn the unit is considered to have cleared lanes at that point and other units can safely enter the minefield in Travel Mode without suffering a minefield attack

Yup just found that. Thanks.

Good food for thought from the video. Also learned something from the discussion about engineers and minefield lanes. Thanks to all for posting.

Rag Dolly’s videos are very good and instructive on other games as well.
And I think he also is on this forum, pretty sure I saw some posts of him on the Naval section.
