Greetings When I hold the cursor over a terrain hex and it says "Level 10", how high is that? I thought I had seen this information before, but after searching the manual and this forum I can't seem to find the information. Was I just imagining that I saw the information? (I've been chewing sand in the desert for awhile) :D ,or did I just overlook it in the manual? Any information is most appreciated. MCNA update: 7 battles completed. 1 marginal, 3 decisive, and 3 draws. Those 3 draws were quite an education. :eek: The marginal victory on the first battle was a pleasant surprise. I left a trail of steel so that I could find my way home. :D Alvin

I believe the elevations are in meters.

Thanks Warrior. I am experimenting with scenario design at the moment.

Would make sense. A small elevation of 2 on a plain field limits the infantry LOS. (I think it also limits AFV LOS which, if that's the case, makes no sense at all...)
