1914 ADF is rediculous

[Ricky B]

I have to disagree that the units are always going to fire full strength against the closest unit, in a historical situation, rather than a game. It would be most often the case, but not always. I am reading through a book, fairly detailed at times, on the American attacks in the Meuse-Argonne at the end of the war, and frequently the only time their attacks worked was when the german MGs and arty were firing at other targets allowing them to move up close and get in among them. Most common with arty firing into the distance, but also with MGs.

Part of the reason I think it works okay in a turned base game.
