RS Sorrow on Saipan - Design Notes

[Huib Versloot]

Gents:

I've uploaded my Rising Sun "Sorrow on Saipan" version 1.4 into the H2H Testing Area.

Version 1.4 (Uploaded February 14, 2012)

Japanese

Added 1x 75mm gun (off board)
Added 3x rifle platoons (on path behind engineers)
Added 1x 70mm mortar
Increased strength of 80mm Dual Purpose guns from 2 to 3

Many thanks to all play testers! :)

This will be the last version.

Personally I think it will remain seriously off balance with these minor changes. Perhaps with EA "on" there is a minimal chance, but there is no way the Japs will ever score a major vic without changing the vic conditions.
It would have been better to have made radical changes and then end somewhere in the middle with the last version. If this is the last version, it is impossible that it passes H2H as a balanced scenario and hence puts the credibility of H2H testing and all scns that go there at stake. Ofcourse you can decide to not let it pass, but the scenario has enough potential. It seems to me the in this case H2H info from many different players rather led to confusion than that it helped you.
Anyway it's your baby...
