Good morning a few hours too early

In S42 we are using DAWN and DUSK turns in the main game and the sun rises at 6am not 4am.

the 2 hour 4am turn is pre-sunrise.

Senting the turn and daylight perfectly is tricky to do when we are dealing with
- 2 hour days
- 4 hour nights
- and Dawn\Dusk to split the difference.

For the PzC Series we use a grid that Tiller created which looks at:

MONTH and LATITUDE to establish where we draw the line for night and Day. Also please note that in German Accounts of the East Front, often the times being discussed are the TIME in Berlin so the start of a battle might vary from account to account depending if the auther is writting from the German or the Soviet POV.

I'll double check Tillers Grid tonight when I get a chance but I don't think this will be something that we will change (unless it doesn't match the grid and was et in error)
