Top ten things I have learned.

Well now, Ed, one man's hill is another man's mountain. But if the scenario designer wants to model slopes that vehicles can't drive up, or forests thick enough to be impassable, he can very well do it; if he doesn't, then the terrain is negotiable, simple as that. I've driven Volkswagens up and down forested slopes, much less 4x4s or halftracks. I seem to recall a conversation not too long ago about armed halftracks being combat units, and except for certain outrages like unaccompanied assaults, being able to act like it. Observing for their supported infantry is well within my definition of their role.

LOL!
You drive a two and half tonner up to the top of Lookout Mountain without using trails or roads, please take pictures. It will go viral on YouTube.
We are talking mountains and not forested slopes?

I have no problem with armed HT's assaulting any soft targets, or assisting regular combat units in assaulting other combat units.

I like to argue my apples to apples and oranges to oranges. Talk about bananas and it should reference other bananas?
It has nothing to do what the scenario designer did in making the map. But, everything to do with what a player thought they can do. They just could not do it "for real".

Larry, you should try my "truck wars" scenario? Huge map two roads, one river, and enough AP's for each to block the bridges from the other to cross, on the first turn. After that "?" marks can look at each other for the remainder of the scenario. Unless one moves and allows the other to cross the river.
