Do we have too much control over fire in PzC, what’s your opinion?

[Mike Bowen]

I agree with most of what has been posted. I did many years ago suggest that rules could apply per side. So for example artillery set up might apply to the Russians in 41 but not the Germans. A similar thing could apply for firing.

The point upon the attacker being able to hit the undisrupted defender I can accept on the basis that the defending commander has put his undisrupted units in the front line and so the attacker is fighting them.

That applies for in my view to direct fire artillery and air attacks by specialist aircraft eg Typhoons others should use the alt rules to carpet bomb but hit the hex.

I also think artillery fire on spotted units is ok for similar reasons they are spotted.
