Something about 1.03 I'm worried about

[Steelrain60]

I don't weigh in on these boards that much, and I've been fairly happy so far with what Matrix has done to improve CS.

But making this change non-optional is a step in the wrong direction. Unlike many of the other changes, this will have effects across all scenarios and will likely affect the balance of many in unexpected ways. It may also cancel out the intentions of designers who take historical accuracy seriously.

I'm all in favor of adding this as AN OPTION, but the way it is set up now means that I will consider remaining at 1.02 for the time being. I will likely wait till 1.04 in the hope that this is made an optional rule to be incorporated into the scenario editor. If this rule can be deleted from 1.03 with additional delay in release, I'd be more willing to accept that.

Jason et al, thank you for all of your work. But this is a serious mistake that will seriously affect game play.
