Suggestion on Command Range

RE: Suggestion on Command Range
You are correct that in cases where there is a large command radius morale of the command HQ unit is not significant.

Disruption, breaking, or being in travel mode has far greater consequences for the command radius than morale. The impact of disruption on your example of a 150 hex command radius HQ unit would be a loss of 75 hexes in command radius. Going from A morale to C morale has a negligible effect for command radius, but does affect the HQ unit's ability to recover from the disruption. In this case the A morale would first have to be assumed to be reduced from fatigue to B morale in order for the HQ to be eligible for disruption.

Adding an extra loss of 20% (another 30 hexes 150*20%) to the 50% loss of command range seems a little extreme for the morale level change from A to C when coupled with the disruption effect of 50% loss in command range. Now our example HQ has gone from 150 command radius to a 45 hex radius (150-75-30) a 70% reduction in command radius for being disrupted by your proposal. I am not sure this is better than the current situation where the loss of morale levels for the HQ is not a factor for large command radius HQ units.

The current rules simply demonstrates that larger command radius HQ units are more resistant to the effects of morale level losses than HQ units with small ranges.

The morale of a command HQ unit has a greater effect if the command radius is 10 or less.
