Idea: Bunker facing N/NE/E/SE/S/SW/W/NW

[P.Ako]

Very interesting idea sir. The question I have is would that change impact games like Rzhev and Kursk. I'm currently playing a Rzhev scenario as the Russians and I have said some hard things about the devil and his relations while trying to get into the German defences but I still would not want to ruin the historical aspect of the game.

For historical aspect you mean the battles where the defender successfully held the line don't you? With this system the chances of taking a bunker by only a frontal assault would be abysmal, and i thought about two thingies:

The facing bonus would apply not only to the facing side but also to it's inmediate sides, IE if a bunker faces south, then the facing bonus would apply also when the troops in the bunker shoot SW and SE, also, like attacker you would not know what side a bunker is facing to (if FOW is activated), you could only make suppositions about where the weak point is.
