With 3 engineers, there is a 50% chance of rolling a 1, so 60 turns and it's now turn 134. That's 6 turns to cross 2 boards and take a town. Am I missing something?
Looked at this one last night. It seems that there will be a small fight south of the river in the first part of the game, then building a bridge for most of the turns in the second part, with a lot of dice rolling. I believe that J6A does raise a good point.
There is the capability to cross the river for foot and motorized, but not mechanized. I am concerned that the river crossing numbers are using the old 1d6 numbers from the prior rules set rather than the 2d6 from the 3rd edition. What do others think on this?
