Rule Clarification Needed

[Dan Caviness]

Gentlemen:

Exit hexes are an abstraction designed to add complexity to the topography of a game engine. Very few battles in WWII were settled by large amounts of combat/non combat units moving past one 250 meter hex to another. Absolutely none allowed said units to magically cease existence by crossing said magical line.

Any tactical technique used by the defenders, including stacking every unit they possess on said hex, should be considered germane and hirsute not to mention chivalrous within the spirit of a game that encourages abstraction.

In a perfect game/world/engine...said player would be able to fight those units...leave 24 burning wrecks and a perfect block...and then exit those units to subtract from the first side player's point harvest reaped by use of said exit objective...after pirouetting 360 degrees to enforce the in your face nature of such a ploy...

Well...OK...that may be over the top...but it's no more abstract then needing to avoid rolling a "six" on your first turn in 3rd Reich to take Poland (or lose WWII before you even get started!) or to give a nod to your AH games...have every single Focke Wulf 190 throughout Germany take off in the same game turn and run out of movement/gas 3 turns later...(Luftwaffe...one of my favorite yet massively flawed AH bookshelf games...I miss my ME-262's)

Can 400 jeeps assault a Tiger tank?
(:O)
You bet your a.. they could!
Panzerblitz says so!!!

Ed...you are a force for good in this group...don't ever change...

Scud...looking at your record...I'd say those units your opponent stacked on the exit hex were simply additional VPs for you to harvest on your way off the map...(:O)

Regards,

Dan
