I am confused over how to use Limited Amphibious (TO, p.302) equipment. I have heard from another player that you have to "switch gears", which basically means that a third movement option is created: Cruise, Flank, or Limited Amphibious. I don't see this in any of the rules. From what I see, Limited Amphibious works like the following.
Step 1: Declare movement of Cruise or Flank. If a water hex is in the desired movement path, then only Cruise (TW, p.53) may be declared.
Step 2: Use Cruise MP. For an example, lets say that a unit with Limited Amphibious is two hexes away from a water hex. The unit has a Cruise MP of 3. There is a Level 0 Clear Hex in front of the unit and it moves into that hex at 1 MP. The Depth 0+ Water Hex is now in front of the unit. Because it has Limited Amphibious equipment, it may enter any Water Hex. When it does so, it can use a maximum of 2 MP or the remaining MP of the vehicle (whichever is less). Remaining MP is 2, so there is no reduction. Moving into each Water Hex costs 2 MP, so this unit uses it's remaining MP and ends it's movement phase floating in the Water Hex.
1) Is the method I described above the proper way to use Limited Amphibious equipped units?
