Infantry carried in halftracks

[Kool Kat]

Hello Peter/Remko/Mike:

Slightly off topic but a quick question I'm too lazy to figure out the hard way by running a dummy game.

Can loaded engineers (whether in trucks or halftrax) clear blocked hexes and/or minefields?

I'm sure they shouldn't...but I'm not sure if the game allows it or not.

Regards,

Dan

Hi Dan: :smoke:

I'm 100% certain that if you drive loaded transport (with mounted engineers, infantry, guns, etc.) into a mine field, it will trigger a mine field attack. I don't believe engineers may clear mines while loaded onto transport... nor would any able commander want to expose his valuable engineers to enemy fire while loaded... in a mine field of all places??!!
