Volcano Man Wrote:However, I don't think that is necessary (or even desirable) given that no other towed gun type unit is required to be adjacent to the enemy as its primary method of inflicting casualties. What I mean is, artillery and heavy artillery usually pulls out well before the enemy is adjacent and, if anything, not granting them a one hex move would encourage realistic behavior of pulling out artillery at the slightest threat to them. This is especially true given that artillery units still have a ZOC.

Good points about the usual employment of the various towed weapon systems. Still, I think that T-mode in PzC is awfully restrictive; basically it says that the only way that loaded, soft-skinned vehicles ever moved was in tightly clustered packs. Certainly battery commanders had the ability to disperse their vehicles and make maximum use of cover when maneuvering close to the enemy, presenting a far less concentrated/vulnerable target than they would while road-marching 10 klicks behind friendly lines.

As for ZOCs, ... well that could be another interesting thread.:cool:
