Serbia '14

[Mowgli]

The following rule on p. 41 in the manual seems to be incorrect:

"The assault costs a unit the maximum of the following two values:
• 2/3 of its movement allowance.
• The movement cost to move into the defending hex."

It seems as if an assault always only costs 2/3. One of my units just attacked into rough terrain (cost 18) whén it had only 15 movement points left. You can check yourself: Just load up the Kosturino scenario, move the unit in (12,7) to (11,8) and let it attack into (10,8) from there (if it is not disrupted yet). If you try to move from (11,8) to (10,8) without assaulting, movement allowance is exceeded.

EDIT: Okay, so it seems to work differently: The assault itself always only costs 2/3, but if you attack into very difficult terrain, your MPs are reduced AFTER the assault (successful or not?) accordingly. In other words: you can always assault into difficult terrain with 2/3, but are not allowed to move on that far after the assault.
