Assault Rule Discussion Part 2

[Herr Straße Laufer]

A small bunch of people who were unwilling to change or adapt there tactics have essentially sabotaged 1.03 and forced the entire community back to 1.02..

Where did you get this idea?
Though I am not happy with the "optional" idea, I am more than happy that we get a new rule that is toned down and bug free. That is what I will be using when I play. But, I will also play anyone who wants to only play version 1.02. Like the armor facing rule, I will play mostly those who have it switched on but, I do not mind playing those that do not.
The future toned down version 1.03 assault rule seems to have as much impact that the current one has. I do no see that so much as a compromise as it is fixing something that was just wrong.

I did not count the heads of everyone who would want to switch to version 1.03 or stay with 1.02. Though, the sample from the poll is too small to give an accurate reading, it does display more wanted a compromised version than the old or new.
If Matrix gives an option to use the old or toned down new, who loses?
