Morale Ratings for Danube 85

[Volcano Man]

That is a good question. I think the answer is in the designers notes document though, or at least I recall seeing it there but I don't recall what the reason was. I would say the main reason is play balance, but I think it said something to do with the lasting effects of the toll the Vietnam War took on the military which was probably not fully recovered until the late 80s, early 90s. Whether this is true or not is something else, but I think it just has to do with balance and then justifying the change.
