Why are urban areas affected by mud?

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).

Well, the streets were most likely bombed or arty shelled into oblivion so its quite a mess anyways when you think about it.

Sure, it is a mess attacking into an urban area, but that is already taken into account when attacking into urban areas, wether we are in mud season or not.

I was talking about heavy and light urban areas (although this last one could perhaps wouldnt fit into "all paved", just partially). Not about cities or towns (which I guess is where the photo was taken). Leningrad center (to say one big city) in 1941 was fully paved. I know there arent many heavy urban hexes in the map (just 8, iirc) but they are among the most important hexes.
