[WarInEur] Strategic bombing Effects

[kentsue at cox.net]

When a hex contains only one center its fairly easy to code the rail line as cut and the Center having a T hit.  A bit more complex that than that for hexes with more than one Center.  Example, the rules state that a T hit is only effective against one center in the hex.  However,  if we cut the Rail to simulate the hit, then none of the Centers will be connected to the rail grid.  So, the cutting of the rail has to be a separate function from placing the T hit on the Center.

But, when the T hit is repaired the Rail line is also automatically repaired.  This begs the question of whether or not the rail is repaired if there are more than one Center in the hex with a T hit and not all are repaired.  Does any T hit repair also repair the rail or is the rail cut so long as any hex in the Center has a T hit?
