and what happens when you misjudge your ability to cover the ground with

single close assault move and wind up delayed over broken ground and get
hit 
with overwhelming fire because you couldn't quite cover the distance in
the 
time alotted. Cest le guerre! That's what it's like on the battlefield,
which 
makes troops damned careful not to over extend themselves. Which means
they 
tend to be VERY conservative with what they will attempt. a range of
possible 
movement within the period is much less chesslike and more battle-like
than 
set movement.
