Why does it cost 11 mp to move into one hex?

[jjdenver]

Hi,

Pls see screenshot below from Directive 21 turn 1. I had an inf div take a town with a bridge. Bridge seemed to survive combat (doesn't show destroyed when I mouse over). I moved in 2 HQ units to act as traffic control. But when I try to move a pz div through the hext it costs 11 mp to enter the hex. Why? I don't see a BTS in the hex nor a broken bridge nor mud. How can I tell why the mp costs are what they are?

Thanks

Despite HQs (and do they have MPs?) I'd say over-stacked, traffic jam.

I think you maybe had a battle happen in that hex and now the BTS system
has labeled that hex as one that has a big timestamp even though the BTS
crossed swords aren't showing.

I did an "overrun" just moved into the hex and pushed back the defenders. But I didn't do an attack through right clicking on the hex. Does that create a BTS? Just moving in and pushing them back?

It's my understanding that it does.

What Larry said. ^^

Ok thanks. But why no BTS so we can see which hexes to avoid?

Thanks that works. Now I just need to figure out how to get broken rail hexes to show up. Anyone know how?

For that... well, my personal opinion, use one of the mods; IMHO they're shown much better in Telumar's mods (graphics) etc. Same goes for the destroyed bridges.

And if that doesn't work for you, try Silvanski's MOD:

You could activate the BTS swords on the map.
