Road Movement and Hills

[Poor Yorek]

The rule states: "Units moving along a road (including bridges) pay the road movement cost on the TEC, not the cost of the terrain in the hex ."

The hill or hill line is part of the "terrain in the hex." My opinion then is that when moving along a road, motorized or mechanized units pay only 1/2 a movement point cost no matter the terrain feature. Now, of course, were the vehicle moving onto a road in a hex with a hill line, then the +1 penalty (in addition to any other terrain feature) would be paid.

In my opinion.
