Q: How can I load up a German 88 Flak Gun with the Large SA if only one vehicle per hex is allowed?
A: The current stacking rules allow you to temporarily over stack the hex. Using a transport with the Large Transport SA, you can drive in and then load up the 88 Flak Gun. Once the gun is loaded, it no longer counts towards the stacking limit within the hex.
