Given that the LVT has a 3/7 (water and land movement) should I take from your sentence: "for example, I would say If you moved 2 water hexes you would still have 3 land movement points left" that having spent two thirds of its water movement the LVT gets one third of its land movement that it is rounded up to three? I.e. from 2.3333 to 3.

I agree with idea of converting remaining movement points available as a ratio as outlined above.

I strongly disagree with the rounding up movement points available because it it not consistent withe the way movement along roads is handled. If a mechanized unit that has 2 movement points remaining move one hex along a road, he expends 1/2 a movement point and has 1 1/2 movement point remaining. It thus cannot enter a clear hex that is off road at this point. No rounding up.

In your example, I would say the LVT has 2 1/3 movement points left and not round it either up or down.

Agree, never round up movement points
