Latest Opinions on Assault/Defend PBEM Ratio

IMO the 2:1 odds work very well as the default for attack/defend scenario's. On occassion I've set the points higher for the attacker.

I disagree with comments made early that the defence needs to be mobile and more points needed. For ww2 especially that is not the case. The bulk of the defence should be fairly static with a small mobile force for plugging gaps and counterattacking. Far more important is the ability to project force form a distance, ie enough mmg's, hmg's, light and medium mortars and other artillery (light flak guns can work too). Add to that well placed at guns and at-teams and 2:1 odds are often not enough for the attacker.
