Engineers

[Scud]

...At the same time the developer also developed the ability for infantry units (in one turn if lucky)to Dig in and make an IP postion in the 250M hex.Also Engineers to be able to smoke a 250m hex and ability to remove mines in a 250m hex 1 level per turn.These original features arent exactly to scale either....

Actually, in fairness, the platoon digging in on a 250 meter hex, doesn't mean they're making a dug-in position out of the entire place, it just means that where they sit, they've dug a fortified position and control the immediate 250 meters. Same with a mine field, same with smoke. Out of the entire 250 meters, the engineers might be smoking themselves for cover to clear a small, maybe 20 meter section of mines in a road or trail—for a level 1 mine field. Graphically, that would be near impossible to represent, so the 250 meter icon has to be thought of a merely a representation. At least, that's the way I've always interpreted it.
