    pg 40 the rule states:

    if the distance is bigger than his first MOV value, or if his base cannot be place on the landing spot, then the fusilier cannot jump to that spot. he must choose a new landing spot he can reach and safely land on or he performs an idle instead.

    ---------------------------

    this sure feels like pre-measuring with extra steps? like, I can hope for the best on a jump, it doesn't work so I pick something else, doesn't work, and just keep checking spots until I find one that fits? that's one degree less than just whipping out the ruler and checking your mov in a circle and picking wherever you want?

    or am I missing something?

    all movement skills allow you to measure the options you would like to move to, before actually moving there. so as far as any movement skill is concerned, pre measure away (for the 2/4/6/8 inch move that you have).
