Soak off attacks, love or hate them and what to do?

[Outlaw Josey Wales]

I agree using trucks for soak off is definitely gamey, but not gamey if using combat units.

As for the wargame/chess statement above. I've been saying for yrs wargames are advanced chess games, different units do different things and you have to try and use them together in a correct way. Much easier said than done tho.....plus the wargames look way better than any chess game. And to me, a big part that makes these games better than anything else out there, thru email, there are a whole lot of good folks here that understand why we are all the way we are and do what we do. And a good woman that sticks with you despite the gaming is just more gravy on the mashed potatoes :)
