[Rules] [Terrain in Beyond Normandy & War in the Hedgerows: Operation Epsom, 1944

[Blackcloud6]

But in CMBN, where every hex is hill slope terrain, why would a vehicle cruise smoothly from 117 to 188 to 119 meters elevation, then suddenly have this huge movement penalty as it goes from 119 to 120? These contours are not crests, as the scenario booklet points out (and you can see from wartime photos and maps) that the Epsom area everywhere is very very gently sloping land.

Well, one could surmise that at that point it is simply where the movement penalty is calculated for traversing the slight rise over a number of hexes over which it is actually spending the movement point in fractions.
