Extreme assault?

[Herr Straße Laufer]

This one favors the Brits. Sorry guys but if is the scenario you are using to say EA is broken then you are a bit off.

I agree wholeheartedly.
Except for the fact that we were not talking about whether the Brits can win or lose with extreme assault turned on.

The example used was about one Mg platoon holding up a battalion of the Brits for 8 turns. After turn one the Mg platoon was continuosly disrupted and/or reduced each turn. By the fourth turn it was surrounded and continuously assaulted from different hexes, multiple times, after it was disrupted by artillery and direct fire.
Each turn it repelled the assaults (or should I say the attacker's die roll failed) and the MG platoon went on to recover morale. My opponent used it's three AP's firing, at close range, to decimate adjacent platoons but, the real effect was holding up the entire progress of two Brit battalions.
On turn nine, after the barrage had once again disrupted the Mg platoon and reduced it to one strength point, I volly fired and destroyed the mg platoon.

And, the reason I thought the game should not be played with extreme assault on is for the German player. With extreme assault turned on the German would not have a prayer to retake any victory hex using minimal force.

The discussion was never about the specific scenario. It was about extreme assault and it's reliance on a single game engine die roll.
Every scenario, every game played, is effected when using extreme assault.

That was the simple point that a few are trying to make. I don't want the "crew" to think that scenarios are the problem, extreme assault is the problem.
