But as David desJardins points out, it allows two armies to pass right by
each other without any sighting.

I have to agree with the others who have stated that the current
flat (square?) movement system is an offense to realism.
Diagonal movement need not be exact either. I am not in a postition
to do my trigonometry at the moment, but if there are fractions involved,
then just round them up. Even if it's not exact, it will still be
a big plus to the current laws of geography.
