The French AA fire (2,2,2,5,6) takes the fun out of the attack.

Steve decided that it was halved by rivers.

There is also another change:
Each Corps sized panzer adds +0.5 to the attack.
Each Division sized panzer adds +0.25 to the attack.

Normal MWIF rounding applies, so +0.5 rounds to +1.

So if no other modifications apply, then one MECH is enough for +1 to the attack, (+0.5 rounded to +1)

Does this mean corp sized panzer is +.5 without a river and +.25 across river?

Also is a corp sized panzer on defense +.5? So 2 MECH in a hex would be .5+.5=1?

Yes.

No, each corps sized panzer gives -1. So 2 MECH would be -2


xxxxxx


A few examples:

Attack:
1 Corps +0.5, rounded +1
2 Corps +1, rounded +1
1 Div +0.25, rounded 0
1 Corps and 1 Div +0.75, rounded +1


Attacking across river:
1 Corps +0.25, rounded 0
2 Corps +0.5 , rounded 1
1 Div +0.125, rounded 0
1 Corps and 1 Div +0.375, rounded 0

Defence:
1 Corps -1
2 Corps -2
1 Corps and 1 Div -1.5, I do not recall seeing this variant although I think it is rounded up to -1.

Attack vs Defence.
1 Corps +0.5 VS 1 defending Div -0.5 = 0
2 Corps +1 vs 1 defending Div -0.5 = +0.5, rounded +1
1 Corps +0.5 vs 1 defending Corps -1 = -0.5 rounded to 0 (pretty sure about this one)
1 Corps and 1 Div +0.75 vs 1 defending div -0.5 = +0.25 rounded +0

Attack across river vs defence
2 ARM Corps +0.5 vs 2 MECH -2 = -1.5 and I think this as usual rounds to -1


Edit: Beware, I can have made some mental errors when I made the examples. But I do hope that the principle is shown.

Status: offline 		Also note that Steve decided that the size of a paradropping unit matter.

A PARA Corps making a air drop is +1. But a PARA division making a air drop is +05. This might not make a difference because of rounding, but other modifications can make the difference important.
