Invasion ‘44 Hedgerows
In Invasion 1944, Special Rule 15 identifies hedgerows in Normandy as particularly nasty terrain features. It states that these hedgerows are different from normal hedgerows in that they are taller and made in part of a dirt. These are to be treated as 20 m hills for LOS. I have been playing that LOS extends through the immediate hex side but no further. This is because Directt Fire is allowed (with a -2 modifier). But nothing is mentioned about the distance of LOS through bocage type hedgerows. Three hexes, as the TEC states for normal hedgerows? Or one hex? If these hedgerows are to be like 20 m hills, can LOS even be traced though the hexside.
If one hex, play wil center around Assault Combat. I don’t know if Normandy has ever been compared to Stalingrad or the Pacific thick tropical jungle fighting.
