Deadrise -> Questions about: Bocage, walls, hedge and onboard mortar spotters (11/17/2005 6:11:48 AM)

1. Units adjacent to bocage hex are always spotted, Why? (Can't make it make sense in my mind)

2. Why does a unit behind bocage (always spotted) have to pay a penalty to fire from behind terrain? (Just want it to make sense to me)

3. Is a unit adjacent to a wall or hedge always spotted, like the bocage rule?

4. Can a unit surronded by hedge but not adjacent to hedge get the =2 rally bonus?

5. Does moving behind bocage negate movement modifier?

6. Does a leader spotting for an onboard mortar have to be adjacent to the firing mortar?
* 50mm mortar probably would not be in radio contact with a remote leader*

Thanks
John

They are not always spotted, depedning on the terrain of the hex behind the bocage hexside. As for why...designer's decision.

AFAICT, you never receive a rallying bonus for hedge.

No.

It is unintuitive, and confused me at first. If I understand Mark on this, hex-side terrain is handled this way in order to keep the gameplay clean and simple, and not have players combining terrain modifiers. In the scheme of things, it doesn't have a very big effect on combat.
