6.2.0 Wood combatWoods may be passed at the rate of march indicated in table 3. Fruit orchards are considered as difficult terrain, ref. 2.3.7.

However, the edge of a wood is considered as normal terrain in relation to movement, except that lateral movement within the edge is considered as movement in a wood. The outside of the edge is considered as an obstacle that is passed when entering and leaving the edge of a wood. A maximum of two ranks may be placed in the edge of a wood.

Woods and edges of woods constitute cover. When units placed within a wood, that are not placed in the edge of the wood, fire at a target outside the wood, the target is considered as being in cover, ref. table 5.
