This is hands down the most egregious case of “shit I’ve done wrong for twenty years” yet

(Looks up rule)

Well kiss my grits... I literally never realized that.  The rule says they can change elevation at 2 MP per level.  I guess I read that as 2 MP per hex.  And I thought "of course, one to change elevation, one to enter the new hex".  It's been that way since the first CityTech too.

I think maybe it's the confusion of the nouns in this case, I read "Turn" as being, well...a Turn, probably because most groups I've played with term it a 'tick' during the movement phase, while a 'turn' covers everything from initiative phase to heat phase. (and everything in between).

Gamer-Grammar gets funny, and probably accounts for about ninety nine percent of rules arguments.

And that's why we get into RAW vs RAI arguments: grammar.
