Platoon ZOC rule

[HMCS Rosthern]

VM said "With platoon recon units one of two things WILL happen (in game): the ZOC stops the enemy and if the small recon unit does not move away then it easily overrun on the following turn, or the recon platoon falls back far enough that the advancing enemy does not have enough MPs to assault it in the next turn. Either way, ground is gained by the attack and the recon units must perpetually fall back. Sounds like a delay to me."

VM point is valid. If one looks at the progression over several turns, there is a "delay effect".

I think this should be an optional rule. If it is to be automatically included in the next T'41 update, issues with scenarios will occur.

I submit that if this rule is to be included, there should be a "minimum strength to be able to exert a ZOC rule". If a platoon can not have a ZOC, why should a one-tank (or one man) battalion have a ZOC?

P.S. I really like the T'41 game. It is underrated.
