FM WarB Wrote:The reason why you have this "phantom artillery" issue is easily explained. If the map extended further east to alleviate it, people like me would have considered churning out France '44/ Siegfried Line scenarios. I do not criticize HPS for that, but there it is.
I am happy with the scenario, oob and pdt file editing that I can do in PzC and Nappy games, and will not buy another ACW game, because I cannot do such in them.

No - it wasn't France '44/ Siegfried Line scenarios. However we didn't want anyone to build a Bulge Game on the France 40 Map, thus negating the need for people to own Bulge. That could piss off a lot of people who bought Bulge. And Bulge is a very popular game!

Looking at it another way we made a lot of map for this game and saw no reason to go further east of where we are as there was no significant fighting there. And, as Dog Soldier posted above, it really makes no significant difference in the outcome either.

So why add more map, all to save a few arty shots which makes no difference to the outcome?
