RE: Military Engineering in PzC
I just wanted to add that the Bridging rules, and tweaks re the quality ect were calibrated with Bulge where we had some really good data on how long it too for several different formations of differing quality (read equipment available to them as well) and then, based on the percentages we applid we subjected the game engine to a battery of tests.
I know it seemed like forever getting those bridges up in game terms but it was still faster more often than not, that it took historically.
A quick chack of the PDT for BULGE and BUDAPEST on the Bridge % values shows they are within 5% of each other with the Bulge values being a little lower, while Bulges is 2 month earlier.
So what I would say is if anything, the Bridge Building in Budpest, given the current rules is statistically better than historical. As the Operational Commander you would know necessarily have al the details about what is happening at each and every bridge site - so the micro information you would really like to have would add more to the GOD LIKE POV players already have with the info they have at their finger tips.
