Here you go gents

Obstacle hexes cost the full movement allowance of units to enter,
but cause no casualties.
Barbwire included

Explain?

So basically a unit enters an obstacle hex and that ends their turn?

No casualties are inflicted on them to move thru a minefield or barbwire?

Do they at least need the proper equipment ie mine rolls, wire cutters, mine detectors, etc.....?

Even in Squad Battles these can cause casualties or pin a squad?

Obstacles impede movement. You need to be adjacent and use your full movement allowance to move into them. There is no cost to leave. They can only be cleared by engineers. There is no 'breached' status like in PzC due to the scale. In PzC's with 1km hexes it is easy to clear a path in a two hour period. In PzB's the requirement is to clear the hex.

Minefields only cost the normal cost of terrain to enter but will reduce the units available movement points by at least 1/3 of the original movement allowance. Casualties will be determined both on entering and leaving the hex. Minefields can't be breached and must be cleared by mine engineers. Minefields also block supply, so a unit in or beyond a minefield is considered isolated.
