The club route costs 4mp per hex. You receive units (reinforcements) faster then they can move on the road. If I am doing it right. I have a couple questions:
Do the units have to stay in column mode until the end of the club route, or can a slower unit drop out of column so a faster unit can pass? Basically a 11mp
unit only moves 2 hexes correct? When the units start to pile up in the reinforcement hex, do you have to take them in the order they arrived? Thanks Dan

Dan, you can certainly drop out of column and use the OT movement cost, and that'll get the units moving at their correct rate.
Some players found this a little too fiddly (getting units into column, then out, then back in), so there's an alternative method given on the errata page (http://www.dfwfront.com/dc/errata.html): "The Units on Club Route can move 5 hexes per activation if it starts and ends the movement in Column, and there are no additional movement costs encountered (such as moving through a Barrage Marker). If a Unit reaches the end of Club Route use a fraction of the remaining MPs (so if a 13 MP unit has moved 2 hexes on Club Route and comes to the end, it has 3/5 of it's movement remaining so 7 MP...round fractions down). This is a change from the movement costs printed on the charts." The effect is about the same, but it speeds up play. |
