Terrain Protection

[Kartoffel]

In my expierence road is not its own terrain type, I haven't played hardcore for a while, but when I did, some time ago, road over rough seemed to have the same protection as rough without road.

And it makes sense if you think about it, as Cross points out. What infantryman would stay on the road if there is a handy jumble of boulders or clump of trees right on the side of the road?

(trees can be placed on a road hex)
