Can someone please let me know what effect barbed wire has on the game. Can not find anything in the rule book. Main questions being; does it block LOS/LOF? does it block movement for inf? can ENG or ARM destroy sections of it? many thanks

For effects see p.140 Terrain Movement Summary table. Essentially treat as Linear Terrain see p.19.

So basically infantry halt on contact and need a further order to cross with an additional -1 for dense terrain. Full tracked AVF's cause a breach as can Engineers.

Not sure if explicitly stated but I have always played that it does not block LOS or LOF Smile

Wouldn't have thought it affects LOS/LOF.
