Major, Minor River Definition

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

Major, Minor River Definition

Post by zbig »

How are minor and major rivers defined? Is it by width only or can other factors be used (for example, the surrounding terrain, the speed of the current)?

Thank you.

Don't know who decided on when rivers qualify for major or minor, but you can easily see the difference on the map.  When in doubt you can mouse over an adjacent hex and it will say whether a particular hex side is major or minor.
