PZC System not much being said

[JonS1]

Hi Hadge, in general I agree with you, but have a slightly different take on it, obviously :)

The Pcamp system IMO revolves around the relationship between battalion sized units in the context of an operational battle, and does it admirably.

Well, what is "operational"? Seriously. I always thought that the operational level dealt with Corps/Army sized units (for the Germans and Western Allies) involved in battles spanning several weeks.

The kinds of scenarios included in PzC modules would tend to support that view, I think.

Given that, what are the important factors at that scale?

Taking the most recent discussion, I think flexible transport is one of them. Looking specifically at the more modern campaigns, the way that air-mobile (helo) ops are implemented strikes me as really odd. The helos are treated - by the game - as not only essentially indestructible, but also totally bound to a particular group (pn, coy, bn, whatever) of infantry. There is no flexibility to reassign helos to lifting other units, against all practical evidence to the contrary.

Im all in favour of enhancements

And based on their performance with PzC (and all the other games that use the same basic engine) over the last decade, so are HPS ;)
