A few questions about MUD. My Roundhammer invasion is getting bogged down. The shore line is mud and my tanks are becoming immobilized. They have to cross at least 1 mud hex no matter which way they go and they will only move 1 hex at a time in this stuff anyway.
Is there a "good" way to cross mud?
Can you get your tank out of the mud after it has become stuck?
Do I just need to suck it up and expect my tanks to become worthless pillboxes stuck on the invasion beaches of 1943? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Spoiler alert! There indeed are few beach hexes without swamp and even with clear corridor inlands, roughly in 1/3 and 2/3 way from up to down. However be prepared that while you won¨t lose vehicles to mud (mostly), they will be ideal prey for artillery.

Yeah, there are "beach" hexes to land on but as you move off of them there is "always" at least 1 mud hex. So it looks like I just need to accept this and move on! Thank's for the help. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

I hate to admit it when I am wrong, so I will say you are right instead! I found those clear hexes between the beach and more mud! I guess I will have to do better recon in the future. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif Thank's again.

Mud and tanks just don't mix well.

I forgot to mention. Dinosaurs didn't fair too well in mud either

By the time this scenario was over the beach looked like a parking lot.
