SAND DUNE

A dune is a landform composed of wind- or water-driven sand. It typically takes the form of a mound, ridge, or hill. Dunes are most common in desert environments, where the lack of moisture hinders the growth of vegetation that would otherwise interfere with the development of dunes. Dunes occur in different shapes and sizes, but most kinds of dunes are longer on the stoss (upflow) side, where the sand is pushed up the dune, and have a shorter slip face in the lee side.

The darker-yellow artwork along Dune hex indicates the Dune's Line Crest.

A Sand Dune hex is Open Ground for the purposes of LOS.

A Ground level Sand Dune hex is a zero Level obstacle through the entire hex that blocks the LOS traced at the same level between the firer and target.

A Sand Dune is a Sand Hillock and units in a Dune hex are assumed to be right on the Dune Crest Line, and therefore located slightly above the surrounding terrain but he is not considered to be at a higher level.

A Sand Dune hex has no TEM for fire traced into it.

The Infantry/Cavalry can enter a Sand Dune hex with a cost of 2 MF.

It cost 2 MP for fulltracked vehicles to enter a Sand Dune hex.

It cost 4 MP for halftracked vehicles to enter a Sand Dune hex.

It cost 7 MP for Vehicles with only wheels to a Sand Dune hex.

Vehicle Overrun against a Sand Dune hex is not permitted.

A Sand Dune hex prevent a mortar attack.

No Pillbox, Trench, Sangar Wire, Minefield, Barricades or Roadblock, may be set up in a Sand Dune hex.

During a scenario, a Blaze is not allowed to be declared at a Sand hex, although it's possible that a Smoke exists in a Sand Dune hex from the beginning of a scenario.

Partisan Cheap Move is allowed in an Sand hex.

Special Move is allowed in an Sand hex.

HILLOCK

A desert Hillock was usually not much more than a swell in the flatness of the landscape, and was sometimes referred to by the British as a "pimple". It could provide vital cover and power of observation; hence the presence of one could dominate a tactical situation. It typically takes the form of a mound, ridge, or hill.

DUST

Dust can occur in a number of ways. Moving vehicles, artillery bombardment, bombing, the weather, and other factors could all distinctly impair visibility during a desert battle by creating a ubiquitous pall of dust. In fact, dust was probably the single most effective type of "cover" available in that theater. Vehicles fleeing from the enemy often escaped destruction thanks to the dust they raised, which effectively acted as a smoke screen. A mass of moving vehicles, or a heavy artillery bombardment, could reduce visibility in the affected area to fifty yards or less.

The Dust is a type of desert terrain whose surface is strewn with little loose and small stones, many of them in suspension. It reduced the speed of vehicles to a crawl and severely punished their tires and suspensions, while increasing the fragmentation effect of exploding shells, thus providing an extra danger to infantry and soft-skinned vehicles in the vicinity. Another wind-related aspect of the North African environment is the desert sandstorm, or khanisin in Arabic.

A Dust hex is the equivalent of a normal Smoke hex for all purposes except as modified below.

A Dust hex is formed in an Open Ground or Sand hex and is considered as such for all purposes other than movement costs.

DESERT DEIR

A Desert Deir is a concavity in the landscape, a terrain inconspicuous indentation that could provide protection if the enemy were not too near or at a higher elevation. This terrain feature is an area of ground lower than the surrounding terrain.

A Desert Deir is a concavity formed by a "continuous slope" that occupies most of the surface of its hex.

The Crest Line of a Desert Dier is close to the hexside and the terrain spreads into the depression interior, creating a "continuous slope" and making the hexes on the perimeter of the concavity more difficult to occupy than the rest of hexes inside or outside the depression.

The interior concavity of a Desert Dier is also sand except as altered by the presence of Scrub or Hammada.

The concavity formed by a Desert Dier is 1 level lower than the surrounding hexes.

Units in a Desert Dier hex are on the same level as all other hexes inside the terrain concavity.
