Bridge Defense Value and Dropped OGRE's.
(FYI, reported this on Steam, just noting it here for discussion)
In Scenario 2 (now that we can blow bridges) I took out the large western bridges, dropping the MkI into the river in the process. The graphics showed debris and the OGRE 'stuck' there the rest of the game however it did not take any damage from the drop. If my rule reading is correct, it should have taken 4D6 damage to treads and 1:1 against all components. Rules also say 'worse' of swamp/rubble for movement so it could have potentially been 'stuck' or maybe a bug. GEV's were also able to cross over the destroyed bridge sections w/o issue. I had to completely destroy both OGRE's to end the scenario. Edit: Forgot to note, the bridge dv was 4 instead of 8.

13.02.2 Results of river bridge destruction. If a river bridge is destroyed, place a “Bridge Out” overlay on it. GEVs can no longer cross the river surface in that hex – and, of course, units cannot cross the river on the destroyed bridge. For movement purposes, all units treat that hex as the worse of swamp or rubble. For defense purposes, the hex is rubble.This doesn't mean GEVs can't cross it at all, it means they don't get the road bonus anymore and treat it as swamp. In any case, GEVs freely moving through is a big no-no.

Re: Bridge Defense Value and Dropped OGRE's.
Which is what I was thinking.
One 'could' argue the OGRE entered the hex..... vertically, if it was classified as 'swamp' which gives the potential of 'stuck'. I'm thinking they didn't plan for our twisted minds. Quote:
