[Discussion] How to improve urban combat in PzC/MC

[Aetius]

I really think PzC models urban fighting very accurately in its scale.
I had my share of violent street fighting in places like Caen, Cherbourg, Liège and specially Arnhem.
In all cases the fight was very violent, the cities were rubbled fast, the attackers were exhausted due to the nature of the fight (even winning) and both the feel and the fight's outcome and duration seemed very credible to me.
You need to build your defenses to get the 40% bonus, which in turn will get you either an 80% or 90% modifier, depending on the game. Then garrison the city hexes adequately. You can't expect a battalion to defend against a division with success.
