2 Cross:Thank you for your hard work !

A few questions.

What does it mean "Elevation (AFV)" ?

In shallow water and beach what "Defensive Cover Guide" ?

Units are only stationary if they did not move in the previous turn.
In my opinion, unit will stationary after turn opponent. That is, first of its new turn.

"Elevation (AFV)" means an armoured vehicle is considered "hull down" (giving it some cover and other bonuses) when on a higher elevation.

"Beach" is covered by "sand (flat)", "volcanic sand" and "soft sand dunes".

I am not sure about water - I believe something floating would count as clear = very poor a vehicle "wading" may get some cover.

Cross is correct in that the game considers that units are stationary only if they didnt move last turn (or are infantry that have "taken cover").

You say:

1 turn - my unit moves (no stationary)

2 turn - my unit not moving (no stationary)

3 turn - my unit not moving (now stationary)

I correctly understand you ?

It is interesting to hear the arguments of your and Cross.
It is logical that second turn unit stationary, as speed = 0 km/h.

Hi Epoletov,

I agree with Scorpio's answers.

The only things I would add is that Shallow Water I've listed as "water" for defensive cover (Very Poor), just like flat sand.

Soft Sand should offer slightly better cover, and probably better cover from artillery than direct fire.


A graphic explanation of Hull Down as a result of elevation:




regards,

Cross
