I just discovered something weird

When it is in tank mode, you can cross minor rivers like any other tank
When it is in artillery mode you cannot

I get it from a programing stand point, but kind of weird when it is the same vehicle.
Of course you can get around that with meticulous planning

Same applies for anti-tank tanks. Why can a panther cross a river easily, while a jagdpanther cant?

It looks a lot like a bug

From what I can remember, KV-2 in arty mode does benefit from Master of Blitzkrieg I think?

Well its kinda strange/wierd, because it depens on the mode of the KV-2 when your turn starts. If you start in tank-mode and switch to artillery, you will have the full tank movement even in artillery mode.
If you start your turn in artillery mode and switch to tank, you will still have the artillery movement for that turn

tested it out on a road, 7 tiles when you start as a tank, and it stays 7 tiles after switching to artillery, ended turn in arti mode
next turn:
5 tiles, same position same road, switched to tank still only 5 tiles, finished the round in tank mode
turn 3 again that 7 tiles

I'm on record somewhere advocating for master of blitzkrieg to apply to tracked movement type rather than the vehicle type. Primarily it annoyed me that units like the Breda (SCW tank destroyer based on the Pz I), other TDs and the recon panzer 2s couldn't keep up with the armor in general with the +1 movement speed, nevermind the small river crossings.

Since this has come up again, I'd like to state it again, I'd like full tracked movement type to be what master of blitzkrieg applies to, not just the tank movement types. Does anyone else agree?

I agree. That would make more sense, i mean a full tracked tank gets the bonus but a full tracked TD not ??

So yes, let all full tracked vehicles enjoy the master of blitzkrieg bonus, but maybe it should cost 1 more point. ( i know that isnt the most popular idea)

Like Bee1976 already said, that would make this trait even more powerful. Imagine you combine it with the trait when your units can move and fire (dont know the english name). You can cross rivers and attack with your infantry and other stuff from behind...

In my opinion for 1 point the trait is already strong enough and good the way it is, although it doenst make sense in some cases.
