ORIGINAL: 1925frank [:D] Yeah, Andy! I'm going to hasard a guess and say mwest is against the new extreme assault rules. These have been a lot of fun, but I got in trouble with my wife over my last one. Frank! You show your videos to your wife? [X(] Ah, not a good idea... women just don't understand our drive for "artistic perfection!" [;)] BTW... no, I don't like extreme assault. IMO, it destroys game flow, and reduces a otherwise balanced match into a grinding, slug fest. I recently played Mr. RR. in a WF scenario with extreme assault on. Even though Ed is a more experienced and skilled player then me... he was unable to eliminate (or even reduce in strength!!) a lone German machine gun platoon defending in a trench. Ed was attacking with a battalion-sized force, my unit was surrounded (with supply cut off) for 8 TURNS plus he was conducting artillery barrages on my hex. Nothing happened... except that the MG unit was able to decimate his attacking troops. Likewise, I had other units in bunkers that were happy as a clam, decimating Ed's troops. BTW, these units also NEVER suffered a single strength point reduction, even when surrounded, and supply cut off for multiple turns. After I experienced that "realism," I swore off using extreme assault and will never play a game with that option on again. Yep, I'm against extreme assault. [:@]
