Why does the BGA jungle card say "Unit moving in must stop and may move no further on that turn" but Terrain card 57 on the DoW website does not have that?

Unit moving in must stop.

If the unit has stopped its movement then it cannot move further in that turrn.

I don't see any confusion. It is clear to me.

M44online would still let you take ground after moving in and attacking (example: https://www.daysofwonder.com/memoir44-o ... lay:turn=7). My rulebook says "A unit that enters a jungle hex must stop. The unit may still take ground after a successful close assault."

BGA does not let you take ground after moving in and attacking (example: https://boardgamearena.com/archive/repl ... ;&goto=117#). The terrain card says "Unit moving in must stop and may move nor further on that turn". At what point did it change and why?

My take on it once you move into a Jungle hex you cannot move again unless it is an armor unit.

The Pacific theatre rule book says

jungle
◆ Movement: A unit that enters a Jungle hex must stop. The unit may still Take Ground after a successful Close Assault.
◆ Battle: An Infantry or Armor unit that moves onto a Jungle hex from an adjacent hex may still battle. An Armor unit that makes a successful Close Assault may Take Ground and do an Armor Overrun Combat. When
battling an enemy unit that is on a Jungle hex, Infantry reduce the number of Battle dice rolled by 1, Armor by 2. Artillery Battle dice are not reduced.
◆ Line of Sight: A Jungle blocks line of sight.

So the rule Implementation on BGA should be improved and we should file a bug report.
Or has someone done that already? Then we can upvote that one.

Thanks for confirming Jeronimon, thought I was missing something obvious.

Has anyone noticed if an armor unit can "Take Ground" and do an Overrun
