If a scenario says that units can set up anywhere on a board does that include the half hexes that adjoin to another board?
I am setting up scenario 6 from Eastern Front and the Soviets can set up anywhere on board 6. So can I set up on the half hexes on 6 that also form a complete hex with board 4?
On that note, what is the interpretation of edge hexes that are so small that they do not have numbers. For ex. FitS/EF boards #8 bottom row has hexes about 1/16” in height, no numbers. Playable? I say no. But maybe this should go under House Rules.
But another situation here. FitS #6 (also Could be EF #6) edge hex between 1101 and 0901 at top edge. This row features nice half hexes w no numbers. These hexes look playable. I would play them.
I presume you mean the bits on the geomorphic maps. I consider geomorphic maps (except for the 3rd Ed demo map) to be 13x17 hexes. Thus the little bits that may be on the top or bottom are not playable.
Yes, geomorphic maps are boards, and bits and edge hexes w/o numbers might be construed as interchangeable.
