Optional Rules:

My vote is for both Extreme Assault and Armor Facing on.


I feel stronger about extreme assault than armor facing though. Going into pet peeve / rant territory here but to me it seems the majority of the scenarios contain the German super tanks versus T-34s and a few SU-100s. Browse few of the late 1944 scenarios and 1945 ones and there's still a ton of Tigers versus one or two Stalin tanks and a majority of good old T-34s. I guess this is all realistic as it portrays the late war OOB up until the Swastika was flown over the Kremlin in 1945..... My suggestion: If going with Armor facing off - minimize the German super tank scenarios.

I feel that what is more important than the optional rules is to avoid a lot of the stock scenarios that were initially created to be played human vs. AI. There's really not much one can do to make the balance out.
