Panzerbush

To move troops in jumps between covering terrain - in some tactical wargames.

Panzerbush was overly encouraged first in Panzerblitz; later games with enemy opportunity fire reduced it.

ZOC

Zone of Control - in board and some computer wargames, the spaces around an unit (piece) where enemies must stop, are slowed down or otherwise impeded.

A Locking ZOC makes units stop. In some older games, combat becomes mandatory. A Fluid ZOC only increases the cost of movement. Some ZOC's prohibit or penalize retreats.

hex

A hexagonal space in a honeycomb-like grid, used to standardize movement in some board, miniature and computer games.

Settlers of Catan, Memoir'44 and Panzer General use hexes. A "circle" - points of fixed distance from a center - is a large hexagon too !
