From what i understand "MP" units help with traffic. Does that mean i get a bonus when moving through a stack of my own units with a MP unit present?

If you're moving a unit through a hex that already has a boat-load of units in it the hex may be so packed that you are penalized a movement point or two ( or maybe more ) just for having moved through a crowded hex. If there's an MP unit ( or someother traffic-dude: HQ's, etc. ) then those penalties are mitigated in whole or in part just by being in the hex.

That's my understanding at least.

sounds good, thanks

Any unit with 'Military Police Squads' will assist in reducing traffic penalties. If you check the Unit Report Box, you can see the amount of 'Traffic Control' a unit exerts. Some scenarios have densities that cause no movement penalties, some scenarios generate penalties if you move one unit into a hex with only one other unit.

So if you've got a scenario with heavy movement/stacking penalties, check around for some unit with traffic control ability that can reduce the effect.

Just to keep things interesting, since the new supply rules have supply carried by virtual trucks, if there is overstacking in a hex it may reduce the supply level 'downstream' of that hex, so there's another reason to deploy MPs. If you've overstacked on a major road, it may not only slow down travel, it may also reduce supplies. Mud has a similar effect. The same thing is true about fords across rivers. Do you need to leave the engineers there to help supply, or move them to the front to help the advance?
