PZC System not much being said

The one major issue you will run into, particularly with the alt indirect fire, is that as Glenn would say "the results will be different" from what the scenario is balanced for. I have mentioned this before, but quite awhile ago I got into a Kharkov campaign game as German, where the other player chose, as an experiment, to use the alt rules. The game probably didn't last 30 turns because the large Soviet stacks were chewed up by the alt artillery rule. Even the guard rifle divisions couldn't maintain cohesion, almost all being disrupted by that time and the attack bogged down without breaking through the German lines.

A scenario really needs to be tailored to the fire rules selected, as with France, otherwise things will change quite a bit in most of the games. So beware about global use of one or the other set of fire rules, even if you think they are more realistic - it really requires an alternate version of the scenario and PDT so that it is balanced and historical.

As to making all level bombers carpet bombers, per Michael's comments, that might be a good idea. The allied bombers in France were setup this way, I believe, but not the Germans - probably because they had an easier time, being more practiced, at hitting the target area than the Allies, and since the carpet bombing effects both sides the same, France might be a good example of how to go.
