Market Garden Campaigns

[Mike Bowen]

I have played several and it has always been a problem to me that the edge of the world impacts on this battle than any other title. I have often thought that the Germans need protected areas to retreat to as in rela life they would have pulled back regrouped and attacked this keeping the Allied units tied to their positions to protect the highway. Instead what happens is that the Allies herd the Germans to the edge and wipe them out and then move north.

I am now playing Harry who is a gent and we have agreed the south of Eindhoven (sp) the Allies can do what they want but North there is a 2 hex safe haven. This is as at turn 35 having the effect of tying the allied down and creating a more realistic scenario (IMO).

The point of this post is to ask if in the next updates protected hexes could be used to create these havens by having a 1SP unit arrive

There would perhaps need to be a VP adjustment and indeed I wonder if 1AB units should have a higher defense value as well.

PS upgrades to the Modern series would be very nice as well!
