Supply Question

[Mr Grumpy]

There are two schools of thought that tend to prevail on this ladder about this tactic, first is that although this is in no way cheating it is bad form to take advantage of a abstract feature like supply hex’s to gain an advantage.

Second there are players who believe that anythingwithin the rules is OK and the responsibility for defending your supply sources with some weak units is down to the player who owns them, however players who do this may find that they don’t get asked for a return match or your opponent will try the same tactic on them.

So choose your poison on what is right or wrong…:chin:


This problem is at its worst in the desert titles where units have huge MP allowances and there is always an open southern flank to sneak round and unless I am playing an opponent I trust I will always place units around my supply sources, interestingly in my H2H version of this very same scenario I placed a line of impassable hex’s to the south to prevent just such a move as I am aware that some players would try this tactic.
