A game occurred yesterday whereby a unit of infantry was dug in close to a road, in fact one on either side. A tank unit travelled up the road and it was suggested that the tank could not pass by, as it would pass within 5cm of the dug in unit. I know you should not move closer than 5cm if not Close Assaulting. Any thoughts on this from the group? Do you think the Tank should have to stop and move no closer, the road was otherwise unblocked.

thanks.

You'd need to stop and deal with the infantry first; if you hadn't spotted them then you reveal them at 5cm and stop. Probably Grin

mmm difficult to deal with dug in Infantry with 6 hits. I suppose i'll have to think of it as a 5cm radius!
