Otherwise known as hex 84,49 NW of Wuhan
is ancient and famous as a "mountain city"
Yet it is shown as clear terrain in map art.
It's mountains are significant military
barriers and they limit the amount of
farm land. So the hex should be coded as
mountain in pwhexe as well as shown as
such in art. The terrain delayed the
construction of a railroad into the area.
It was not completed (to the Ichang area)
until after the war was over. Note
this area is entirely Japanese in 1941 -
that Ichang fell in 1940 and should not
be shown as Allied (as it is in stock).
