Question: What exactly is "Hand to Hand" combat?

[raginis]

Did a search of forum and manual. Manual lists a number of units that have a bonus to "Hand to Hand" combat. There is also mention of "melee" combat which occurs only if units are in the same hex. Is this the same thing?

What are the rules for this combat? Does the number of men matter? Morale? Experience? Possession of more close-range weapons (grenades, pistols, molotovs etc.)
