Time Scale

[Osiris]

HI All

So bridges can be laid in 1 turn..thats insane! and how long does it take to put down a minefield? probably a turn.

So here we go..Im so happy I kept all the original designer notes from Avalon hill

B class bridges (trucks only) require 10 turns and 2 engineer platoons to sit in adjacent hexes for all of those 10 turns..thats 1 hour to get that bridge built..

J class bridges (tanks) require 15 turns and 4 engineer platoons to sit adjeacent to the bridge..thats 90 minutes of real time..

The only bridges that can be laid faster are specialized armored units called bridge layers..they would take about a turn or 2.

Minefields can be placed by 1 engineer unit in 16 turns, 2 engineer platoons in 8 turns and 4 engineers platoons in 4 turns..

Now thats reality!

I think I should send the original design manual to Matrix and company.
