All foot units moving into a hex with no cover, as listed on the Terrain

applied if an opponent fires at the unit immediately in the following
turn.

I do not quite understand the rules on cautious moving.
My problems are about the terms "immediately" and "following turn".
Since the game plays "I go, you go" does immediately mean the first possible (re)action by the opponent? So theoretically, if my fellow opponent has activated a unit on the other end of the map and no CAPS left I do not have to take cautious movement into consideration? (Let's forget opportunity fire for a sec)
ONE attack only on a incautious unit would trigger the penalty?

Or:
Does it mean the not cautiously moved unit receives a penalty of -1DM the entire round by any unit (even several distinct attacks)?

Or:
Did I get it wrong entirely?

Thanks a lot...

your first reading is correct. although why we're ignoring opportunity action, i'm not sure whistle

The penalty would apply only if there is an attack against the incautious moving unit in the immediately following enemy turn. If the first attack against the incautious unit did not occur until 2 turns later, assuming the incautious unit did not move without caution a second time, there would be no penalty. Of course, if the enemy unit were out of APs/CAPs, or very low on same, in addtion to Opportunity Fire, the enemy player could just finish that unit and activate another within firing range, if available, to take advantage of the unit moving without caution. The term "moving without caution" is awkward to me. The terms I use are "cautious movement" and "hasty movement".

-1DM applies only for the immediate opponent's turn - I think the reason behind it is simple. Who would be able to track all foots units whether they moved cautiously or not later without using special markers?

Thanks to all posters.
Yes it is easier and makes sense if DM is only lowered for the one immediate action following the move.
