Liberation 1944 Woods/Light Woods

[Blackcloud6]

Now, the back cover of 2nd edition also indicates what we consider a hedgerow (along a hexside) to be Light Woods. If you read the hedgerow rule in the first edition, you will see that it is treated exactly like a Light Woods or let’s say a Treeline. Not like a hedgerow. As most Liberation scenarios are located in non-hedgerow areas near Caen, it is ok with me.

Well that is interesting.  It sure is a departure from normal terrain depiction.  So, then if the tree depiction is on three hex-sides, like a star, then are the three hexes all light woods?  is that what is trying to be shown?  Or is only the LOS and movement affected if it crosses the "light woods" hexside?  And then if a unit is in one such hex but the LoS does not cross the light woods hexside, does the defender in the hex still get -1 or not?
