1914 ADF is rediculous

"He means to select *both* the MDF and ADF optional rules. Doing so will allow you to play phased play, but the difference is that the AI will conduct Defensive Fire in the Defensive Phase automatically, thus, making two less phases you have to play in PBEM (one for each side). The AI of course is still prone to firing on things you don't want them to if you do this as you won't have complete control over the Defensive Fire, but at least the AI will fire EVERY single unit in the Defensive Fire phase so that it shouldn't be so much of an issue to those who dislike AI controlled ADF."

This would probably help. For example, I had 3 batteries on high ground, supported by 2 MG section and they were destroyed by a cavalry charge. My fault for allowing that to happen, but the MG sections only fired once each, and the batteries didn't fire at all (all in good order, in command, with ammo). Are you saying that if MDF and ADF is selected this sort of thing is less likely to happen? jonny ;)
