<\/h4>\n<\/h4>\nWe want to thank all of the folks who have offered to help during this period and we appreciate your support. We have four long-time volunteers working with us to cover Arthur\u2019s functions and we even get a bit of Arthur\u2019s time. This seems to be working well and we should be able to put forward an estimate early next week.
\nWhile we are working on Total War for the printer, we will be showing brief samples of the rules, OBs and charts. We\u2019ve selected three samples here from the GE Ground and Air Rules. We understand that there may be questions about rules presented in isolation and we will try to answer them as we have time.<\/p>\n
Taken from Special Ground Units F. Cavalry.
\nThe term \u2018cavalry\u2019 includes all units with any of following unit type symbols: horse cavalry, camel cavalry, sleigh cavalry, mountain cavalry, mechanized cavalry, horse artillery and pack transport.
\nCavalry units have movement advantages in certain types of terrain shown on Exception column of the TEC. Their REs also count towards adverse terrain expertise when attacking or defending various types of terrain [15A] during favorable weather. All cavalry except horse artillery and pack transports have APZOCs [15N2].
\nCavalry count double their RE size for transport [6D] and port capacity [6C].
\n1. Exploitation. Cavalry units may move up to \u00bd of their movement rating during the exploitation phase.
\n2. Retreat before Combat. Cavalry may attempt to retreat before combat [11I] except during mud weather.
\n3. Mountain Cavalry Units. A mountain cavalry unit is both a mountain unit [15L] and a cavalry unit; however it always moves as a cavalry unit.
\n4. Mechanized Cavalry Units. Cavalry were sometimes assigned mechanized or armor assets to increase their combat strength. This is shown with a small, subordinate armor symbol within the diagonal line of the cavalry symbol. These units function in all respects as cavalry except that they also have AEC\/ATEC abilities as shown on the UIC.
\n5. Horse Artillery Units. A horse artillery unit is both an artillery unit [15D] and a cavalry unit. It always moves as a cavalry unit.
\n6. Pack Transport Units. A pack transport unit is both a transport unit [15V] and a cavalry unit; however it may not attempt to retreat before combat.
\n7. Bicycle Units. Bicycles have attributes of both infantry and cavalry units. Treat bicycle units as cavalry when moving on roads (but not overland) during the exploitation phase in good weather. For all other purposes treat bicycle units as infantry. <\/p>\n
Taken from Transportation Lines A. Railroads.
\n6. Rail Breaks. A unit may break a rail line in a hex by spending 2 MPs in the hex. Bombing [21A] and partisan sabotage [15N4] may also break rail lines. Rail movement may not be used to enter or leave a broken rail line hex. Breaks may be repaired [14A]; a rail line may be used in the turn it is repaired.
\nUse a rail hit marker to mark a broken rail line in a hex. Use line cut markers (on the flip side of rail hits) to mark a broken stretch of rail line. Immediately after a rail hit is repaired [15I1], remove or adjust the rail hit or cut markers and place a rail movement delay in the hex. This represents the rail delay caused by the damage and repair of the rail line and such hex counts as two (five) hexes for operational (strategic) rail movement that phase. Remove all rail movement delay markers at the end of each movement phase.<\/p>\n
Taken from Airbases A. Capacity.
\n2. Temporary Airfield Capacity During Rain\/Mud\/Snow Weather. During Poor weather turns, the maximum capacity of a temporary airfield is reduced to 1. Simply flip all 2-capacity temporary airfield markers over to their 1-capacity sides during the initial phase of the turn. Retain all current airfield hits. Example: A 2-capacity temporary airfield with 1 hit would be flipped to its 1-capacity side and then have its capacity further reduced to 0 because of the hit. While Poor weather exists, the temporary airfield cannot be repaired above 1 capacity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
