Points for Assault battle ?

[RERomine]

In fact, you are unlikely to lose if your set-up is right.

So I do consider 3:1 odds a minimum for assault games.

But you're assuming that everyone has your expert level of defensive mastery. The average casual player (myself included) has no chance defending at 3:1. If I had 2000pts in WW2 and managed to win against 6000pts then it would say more about my blundering opponent then about me.. :chin:

You consider your self average?!? :conf:

Anyhow, there is no easy way to figure out the perfect balance. You need two people of equal skill to fight out different ratios of points to find out the perfect balance. Even then, it's only for that situation. Some people are just better than others, some are better defenders than attackers or visa versa, some are better in certain terrain conditions, etc. There will never be a good answer for this.
