The Forgotten Soldier by Guy Sajer is an excellent personal account of the life of a landser in the Grossdeutschland division

now i'm even more confused.  i thought all Union MP's were fixed for the opening move.
 
anyway, 1NY Mtd has 3 MPs, which is enough to get it to Lancaster, but there doesn't seem to be any way i can get it to go to Kent on the first turn

[&:]  what am i missing?  i can't get the 1NY Mtd to move to Kent; when i try it says 'Unable to do amphib move.'
