Below are comparison distances moved in one turn at 'Fast' on Paved rd, Dirt rd, Open ground and Frozen river, the distances vary quite a bit, I dunno why

Quote:they permanently lose their skis if ordered to Advance or Assault

They will also lose their skis if ordered to do anything but Move, Move to Contact or Fast. As well, if they are pinned, they lose there skis. I have just experienced this as a couple of snipers are holding up about 5 platoons in snow, when the squads are pinned, they have lost their skis and their movement speed suffers accordingly. Skis are very quick on ice (frozen lakes).
