Mounted units during deployment Empty Mounted units during deployment

Hi

Page 49 clearly states that reserves can come on mounted and the transport and the "crew" or towed gun count as only one unit.

However what about initial deployment.  Does a 251/1 and its squad count as one unit if it starts the game mounted.  If it counts as 2 units does this also apply to the Forward HQ, some Arty OPs and some mounted recce?

Thanks in advance

A halftrack with any number of units in it counts as one unit for initial deployment or reserves as long as everything is placed mounted.

No, thats only for reserves. For inital deployment each unit counts. So a SdKfz 251 with a full German Infantry squad counts as 3 units. But of course you can only deploy the infantry and place the transports in reserve.

Hi

So the majority of infantry units in say, Tobruk count as 2 or 3 units not to mention HQs, OPs and such on deployment unless they are reserves. This needs clarification.
