Sunken Road This is a special terrain feature only located at Hassenhausen. Each Sunken Road hex has steep slopes on either side with a road in the middle of the hex. There is good protection from offensive fire, perpendicular to the road. Should the enemy flank the road, the fire casualties to the defender could be extensive. Cavalry cannot charge into the Sunken Road as it would be in Road March Movement There is no penalty for moving along the road however cavalry and artillery must be in Road March. Movement is restricted when the unit crosses the steep slope hex side as follows: Infantry +2 to movement
