Title: TZ and Artillery edge
Post by: Neil Williamson on May 21, 2022, 08:48:29 PM

This one was posed in the NZ Facebook group.

An element has its rear edge in a TZ.
The element has an enemy artillery unit flank edge within its movement range.

P32 states a move forward into front edge contact is allowed.
P35 states the flank edge of a train counts as the front edge.

Can the element in the TZ move into contact with the flank edge of the artillery?

I would certainly allow it.

Offhand, I'd say no. The Art's flank counts as a front edge only once it's been contacted.
