I've just reached 5.7 River Crossings: '....No matter the size of the river, any unit that crosses must stop moving once it leaves the river hex.'
Since the section talks about not just bridges, but fords and areas eligible. For crossing by scenario designation, I'm a bit befuddled. Must the unit stop in all three situations: Bridges, fords, and eligible water crossings?
I can see it for fords and wet tracks eligibility, but it makes no sense to me for a bridge. You're on a road, on a bridge, and back on a road but come to a screeching halt?
I must point out that this sentence goes with the one before it. This goes with crossing the at places other than bridges and fords.
Depending on scenario instructions, units may be able to cross rivers at places other than bridges and fords on their own, or they may need the help of an engineer (ENG) unit. No matter the size of the river, any unit that crosses must stop moving once it leaves the river hex.
