Is PTO in effect for this scenario? It is quite confusing and sends mixed signals on how to play it.
1) It does not say that PTO is ineffect, but the setting is in Indochina.
2) The scenario writeup mentions three times the dense terrain.
3) It uses the large Rice Paddy overlay (#3) and those rules are in Chapter G.
4) It uses the large village with huts overlay (#1), so either huts are in effect due to PTO or all those the 'huts' on the board are Wooden Buildings (non PTO).
5) Without the restricting features of Bamboo and Kunai it is too easy for the Japanese to move around and the French have too much ground to cover making it highly balanced toward the Japanese.
We played it PTO.
This worked well and it was a close game. Hope we played it correctly, but I would like to be sure on the PTO question.
