I'm not complaining about the way they are now but the Germans especially may be very disadvantaged by having say only 1 tank on the map to start with against 4 or 5 Soviet. Then there's the chance that 50% of your reinforcement may not show up while your enemy gets the lot of his. If we were playing a 2000 pt battle this may not matter but in these small games I think it will dull rather than sharpen what is already an excellent experience.
You seem to extrapolate a lot there. Why should there be any reason for the russians to start with 5 tanks and the germans 1?
Its a scenario so the starting forces are totaly in the hands of the designer. A sharp shooter each seem fair?
Also reinforcements at 50% will mean that forces would turn up sooner rather than later, but there is no reason for it to be set to 50%, why not 75 or 100 even.
