No rule book handy at work but trying to paraphrase what I read last night (late night reading with the ASL rulebook)

It almost seemed that the "If all units are unknown to the Observer then a extra card draw is required" rule doesn't apply to a PreReg hex. To place the AR all the observer would need is LOS to a Location in the hex and then if PreReg proceed direct to FFE resolution.

If this is correct it would allow the AR and then FFE to take place in hex where all the opposing forces are fully concealed. Thus Prep fire T1 of a Red Barricades CG scenario battle date.

It allows the conversion to FFE for free, but the AR placement still costs an extra draw. Instead of two extra draws it's only one.
