RE: Normandy 44 Bunkers
I think that in the next version I will make the change that I thought of earlier: to put impassible hexes behind the Omaha beach on the longer scenarios (ie. not the 6 turn Omaha scenario), in order to allow the historic option of withdrawing units from the beach. It could be used to remove shattered units to allow fresh ones to land, or (in the worse case scenario) it could be done to totally abandon the beach so until it can be attacked from east and west. This unit removal would be at the expense of permanently losing the unit for the rest of the campaign, so there is an inherent penalty with doing this.
The reason that the short scenarios wont have this change is because the allied player would not the least bit concerned with removing units since he does not have to look that far ahead.
Gordon, also keep in mind that there is an Omaha beach scenario currently under H2H development so any specific changes suggested by the testers will naturally make it into the rest of the campaign as well. So I am not going to say that the situation will not change, but that is up to the testers to decide.
