How to use deception units?

[Green]

* The rules state that deployment is within 3 x Deception Range, and redeployment is 2 x Deception Range. So the initial placement is 3 x range, and then relocating that unit is at 2 x range? You might want to say that explicitly to emphasize the importance of the initial deployment.

* Deception Range is traced from the Deception Unit's location, or from the nearest German unit to the hex? Presumably it's the Deception Unit's location.

* The presence of enemy units and ZOCs does not affect deployment and redeployment? You might want to make that clear: because the fact that German Deception Units actually start on the map, it's instinctive to assume that the Germans have to punch a hole in the line for the Deception Unit to pass through.

The first point is that one that Ian referred to. The range is 3x for a unit yet to be deployed or for a recalled unit to be deployed again and 2x for a unit already deployed to be redeployed. I agree this could be made clearer. 

The deception range used for deployment is from the deception unit to the deployment location but I think this is what the rules already say.

The presence of enemy units and ZOC's does not affect deployment, and this should be stated.

Thanks for the feedback. I suspect the main problem is not so much the rules but the counter-intuitive way the process actually works. It takes some getting used to.
