One thing I'm somewhat unclear on while playing the game.

Do combat elements have a 'facing' in this game? If so, how is it determined and illustrated in the game? Is there a way to rotate a unit to face a specific direction, or is it based simply upon which side of a hex a unit entered into it from? Or it is one of those things that is automatically managed and dynamically changes based upon movements, enemy positions, and what each force does?

Movement direction is shown by the red (combat) or black (road) triangles on the edge of the counter. Facing during combat is considered to be in the best interest of the vehicle based on the terrain/situation. The units can not be manually "faced" by the player.

I thought as much; thanks for clarifying though!

No problem, that's why we are here. [8D]
