Memoir '44
Do General Advance and Recon-in-Force order units in both areas of a Field General's section?
The areas are agreed; whether a second Section card is allowed is disputed, with a relayed designer 'no' on the pairing.

Yes: General Advance orders two units in each of the Field General's two areas (four total) and Recon in Force one in each (two total). Designer Richard Borg, in a 2009 private reply quoted on BGG, said a Field General cannot receive Recon in Force and General Advance together. Some players argue the newer Operation Overlord deck prints these as Section cards, so a second Section card should be allowed; the Operation Overlord rulebook only bars other cards after a Tactic card. A Pincer Move recipient may take another Section card but not a Tactic card.
