RE: Question on Strongholds
I have been wondering if the rules don't mention something as either as being included or excluded which trumps the other, i.e. does no mention mean a type of unit (e.g. strongholds) does that mean they included (albeit not mentioned) or not included (by the fact that they are not mentioned as being included)?
That said, I would think that if a stronghold can benefit from the terrain in its hex it should also be able to benefit from being dug in or entrenched, else the stronghold would be a second class citizen vs a normal unit (since it has no survivability benefit on its own except for not counting against stacking).
[edit] Also, the wording of the rule about other units being dug in seems to me to be ambiguous as to how it applies to the stronghold. It could mean that the stronghold gets first fire regardless of whether dug in or entrenched while the other units only get it if dug in or entrenched, or it could mean that being dug in or entrenched only applies to other units.
However, I have yet another question... once again on a different topic.
Rule 12.51 states
Only leaders in an assault hex may influence units there. Leaders in adjacent hexes may not. Leaders in the assault hex may direct units in adjacent hexes to enter the assault hex, but may not influence them in any other way if they don't enter the assault hex.
Does that mean
1. if a leader adjacent a assault hex can provide a moral check or rally bonus to a unit in an assault hex?
2. Can a leader in the assault hex provide a moral check bonus or rally bonus to a unit adjacent an assault hex.
3. Can a leader in an assault hex activate a unit adjacent the assault hex to do anything other than enter the assault hex?
