<br />I still find it hard to believe that a regiment would stumble accidentally into an abatis hex.<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">
Eaxactly! We're not talking minefields here. In fact, the real challenge would be to try and camoflage abatis so that people would just stumble on them. That would be either a major engineering feat, or a bit of missing computer code.

Even enemy troops should be able to see an abatis at 100-125 yards... If I can tell what part of a green a hole is located and how far back from a bunker or lake to get there, I should think that locating a giant pile of sticks should not be a problem!!!!
