Korean War- Human Wave too strong?

[K K Rossokolski]

Why bother? A lot of work for little purpose IMO.
LEAVE IT IN, I say.

Why is it broken? Are there criteria that indicate so? What does the history tell us about the effectiveness of this tactic?
If there is evidence that the human wave attack is out of whack with historical reality, are there other ways to adjust?
If so, possibilities could include:
a. decreasing defence value of some PLA troops such as line infantry;
b. increasing soft attack value of UN troops especially MGs and in particular .50cal*
c. increasing vulnerability of PLA leaders*,

AND REMEMBER THE BOTTOM LINE...HUMAN WAVE IS NOT COMPULSORY. It could very easily be the subject of personally agreed ROE between players.

If, Mike, as you say sadly, there are any.

* I have long believed that across the whole of CS the .50" cal is too weak against infantry, and that leaders are too hard to kill.
