I usually "lurk" and don't post here all that often. When I do post it's usually to say "thank you" to the guys who make the Blitz a place I have enjoyed for the last 8 or so years. I too am really unhappy with the ver 1.03 assault rule changes...not because they do or don't more accurately reflect real combat, but because they fundamentally alter the game itself and how it is played. The game is an abstraction and we could sit here forever and argue about how to quantify every little aspect of a battle without ever coming up with the "right" answer. The magic of the CS series for me has alwys been that it came pretty damn close to capturing a perfect balance of realism and playability. Why else would a game, that in this age of computer games is as old as the Dead Sea Scrolls, still command such a following? I am concerned that these changes have damaged that balance between realism and playability. All that said I have confidence that Jason and crew will set things right. I've had my say, now I have turns I owe people.
