F 14: Metz should be worth something

[JohanIV]

It occurred to me that one way of doing without expanding the map eastwards would be to let mobilized units drop onto the map as some French and German reinforcements in the Moltke Indecision scenario. If you want to include strategic or operation surprise (making it out of control for the player) the surprising force can be dropped in first.

Well, historically the Germans did leave it practically naked -- its garrison division even left it to act as a covering force around Nancy. I have no doubt that the static garrison within could hold off any assault that lacked siege guns. ;)

In any case, feel free to create a variant that puts several thousand points there, but by August 22nd I just did not feel that there was any emphasis in that area, other than a prolonged siege at best. I do have a plan to (eventually) make a campaign that begins sooner, in the mobilization phase, where Metz would have some value - but I am just formulating at at the moment.
