Sauron1 writes;Yes we will be using the road bonus rough terrain feature
as the map as I postted is of the current French -Belgium border
in1;100000(1cm=1km)scale.The problem is actually the Eldar scimmer Apc as
the original rules limit its height of flight and as the map has steep
river gorges I am thinkig of limiting its ability to skim over steep
riges,but I am working on that and so far it is my greatest rule problem.
Any sugestions? sauron1
