@General:

No.  Start at the edge of the map.  Not a corner.  Count 5 hexes toward the middle.  Your units can go in those 5 rows.  You are making it much more difficult than it is.

thank you! its the 5 rows from edge :)

@General:

Within 5 hexes from your edge of the map, not counting half hexes

ok, edge as in the from 1 corner of the map within a 5 x 5 hex area?

hi all, sorry i just got the game and was still confused abt the rules tat say deploy within 5 hex,

wat is 5 hex? a radius of 5 hex or in the sense like the last 5 rows from the bottom of the map?
