Engineers

[Mike Abberton]

Roads, no I don't think that's reasonable. There's a lot more to making a passable road, especially for wheeled vehicles, than cutting down some trees. Trails maybe, but not roads.

Actually the American engineers made a road in the Bulge.....I recall it was east of Schoenburg and in the mud........remember we are only limited by our own imaginations......or as I tell the kids at school "When you say I can't.....you will most always be right " :-)

Earl,

Sorry, I didn't mean to say that they couldn't build a road at all. That's probably one of the tasks engineers did all the time.

I was thinking that more in context of a reasonable game scale. Not just 6 minutes either. IMO, a turn would have to be several hours, at a minumum, to build a road through a 250 meter hex in good conditions. To build a road in muddy conditions that would support wheeled traffic would take even longer since you'd likely have to line the road with something (trees or PSP or something).
