B'45...The Reich Strikes Back..Konrad I..18th Mech's early Release

[HirooOnoda]

I look at these games as I would a boardgame. When playing a boardgame don't both sides know when releases occur or reinforcements enter the game?

Secondly, this little "suprise" won't happen again, thus its "appropriateness" is a one-time affair not ever to be replicated by myself in future playings.

I think it is naive to think my opponent doesn't know when my forces are released or come on the map. To play the game against that assumption is to invite defeat.

But you are right, it was a schock and now, as in real life, I have to adjust my attack plans.
