Lodz Campaign Question - jim pfleck - 02-17-2016

Hello Gents,
Doctor and I are playing a Lodz campaign. In this campaign, the Vistula is a full hex river. My reading of the pontoon and bridge repair rules is that the pontoons cannot be built in this scenario and that the hex-long bridges, once destroyed (and my reading is that they can be destroyed), are not repairable.

Am I correct on all accounts. Both of us would benefit from a clear understanding of this.

Thanks!

And my educated guess is that engineers cannot repair hex long bridges in the time span of a game given what the documentation says about their limitations in this period.

oh dear, did I just give away my intentions?

Maybe. I ran a test using the scenario editor and bridging engineers cannot repair or build hex long bridges. I am happy with that

You cannot destroy full hex bridges in that scenario because the scenario uses the wired bridge feature.

Also, FWIW, I may allow full hex bridge (pontoon) construction in the next update as I am standardizing everything. In any case, that change would carry over into your campaign once the update is released (whenever that is). Just letting you know. ;)

Dr. Doctor,
does this mean my poor Landwehr north of the river should be preparing for rest and relation in Siberia?

...BTW, to answer the other question, no you cannot repair full hex bridges. ;)
