On Foot

[Glenn Saunders]

I do not understand this. If halftrack infantry in T mode = hard target, then what is it if not in T mode?

Couple points
1) If HARD halftrack infantry in T mode = hard target,
but if there is soft HTs which do not provide HARD Target status. These are the "Prime Mover" type tracks - not sure what the designation is. However you need to view the unit by right clicking on the unit window to confrm the HARD TARGET status in T Mode.

2) Units that are HT\Mot\Horse that are not in T Mode are deemed to be in DEPLOYED status. Even FOOT units can be in T mod which is basically lined up in column from crossing bridges or using road movement. Any Units in DEPLOYED mode essentually ignore Roads and Bridges

3) "ON FOOT" can be DEPLOYED or in T MODE. In Deployed mode, they can simply go places like into SWAMPS or ROUGH which the unit couldn't normally go with their Transport. In T mod they are treated like "Foot" Units - that is in column for Road movement, ferrying, crossing bridges. Their HT\Trucks\Horses are considered to NOT be with the unit.

I hope this clears up any questions re ON FOOT and ON FOOT vs being "Deployed".
